One is an action and the other is a status.
When you first apply to TESU, you are considered in "applied" status.
Once your application has been approved, your status is changed to "admitted." As an admitted student, your catalog is locked to the current one as of your admission date. Admitted students are allowed up to two transcript evaluations and limited support from the school admissions counselors (mainly to help you register for classes, etc. They won't help with pre-planning courses on your evaluation, etc.) You have one year from the date of admission to officially become enrolled or you will revert to inactive, lose your catalog lock, and need to apply again if you want to continue with TESU.
Once you register for your first course you become an "enrolled" student (well, technically you become enrolled 10 days after that course's term begins). As an enrolled student, you have full access to all college resources including unlimited transcript evaluations and full support from the registrar and academic counselors. This process also resets your one-year timer, keeping your catalog locked for another 12 months.
Each time you register for a new course, your timer gets reset for 12 months. If you don't graduate or register for a new course within 12 months, you will revert to inactive, lose your catalog lock, and need to apply again if you want to continue pursuing a degree with TESU.
Hopefully, that clears things up.
Working on: Debating whether I want to pursue a doctoral program or maybe another master's degree in 2022-23
