Project Overview An enrolment system requires the necessary information needed in registering a person in an organization. The processes may vary according to the requirements that the organization needs for a successful enrolment. A typical enrolment system uses specific programs to ensure that the person enrolling and the persons doing the enrolling are able to manipulate and input data accordingly. Don Bosco Technological Institute has an effective enrolment system that uses programs to manipulate students and staff information. The system uses Microsoft Excel and Access Database in enrolment and registration for admittance into the school. The analysis focuses on scoping, giving recommendations and improving the school’s current enrolment system. The current system has processes that require students’ information such as Name, Gender, GPA(Grade Point Average), Scholarship type, Last School attended, Home Province etc., this also includes information consisting of personal information, school records and financial records. Furthermore the system generates reports but has a setback that does not allow retrieval of information.
