Student ran, celebrating, gaining admission (8)

I believe the answer is:

entrance

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'admission' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'student ran celebrating gaining' is the wordplay.
'ENTRANCE' is hidden in amongst the letters.
But, I am not sure how this is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for entrance that I've seen before include "Maybe drive" , "Charm, delight" , "Charm - one's way in" , "An actor's coming on stage" , "Means or place of going in" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
