| dc.description.abstract | This study focused on the design and development of an Online Admission Management System (OAMS) for Mahanga Secondary School in Tororo District, Uganda. The project was motivated by challenges associated with manual admission processes, including physical submission of forms, delays in processing applications, transportation costs, difficulties in storing and retrieving records, and limited communication between applicants and school administrators. The study adopted a mixed-methods approach, using questionnaires, interviews and observation to examine the existing admission process and identify system requirements. System development followed an iterative Agile-oriented approach, allowing requirements to be translated into system functions and refined during development. The implemented OAMS provides a public admission portal, applicant registration and login, online application, document submission, application tracking and an administrative dashboard for reviewing and managing applications. The system also provides a payment/receipt workflow in which payment evidence can be submitted for verification before approval. The implemented interface demonstrates the main user and administrative functions through the home page, applicant dashboard and administrator dashboard. The system is intended to reduce physical visits, improve record management, support timely communication and centralize admission information. | |
