Web and Mobile Scholar Information System
The main objective and purpose of this study is to design, develop and implement a mobile application wherein the students/scholars can pass the necessary requirements to avail a scholarship program. It aims to replace the manual process of transaction which uses paper application. The proposed application will be beneficial to both the students/scholars and the team that manages the applications and requirements for scholarship programs.
The project entitled web and mobile scholar information system will also serve as a medium of communication between the management and the scholars. Announcement of requirements and the process to avail financial support will also be included in the development of the project.
Significance of the study
The system will benefit the following beneficiaries of the developed system:
Scholars – The system will help the scholarship members to accept and transfer the application form in every operation to the city office up to date. It will also help them to monitor the new and old applicants.
Future Researchers – The result of this study will also help and guide those researchers who would like to conduct study about scholar information system.
Related Literature
According to Falogme et al., (2017), it is for the Scholarship office of a city to render the best service for the clients. Primarily, the office personnel of the said office are having their transactions using MS Excel in keeping records of students’ profile and funds. The record, which is taken by the scholarship head, returns the information of the qualified applicants for scholarship. Each application will undergo strict screening and one of its major requirements is that the scholar applicant must be a bonafide resident of the said city. In using MS Excel, the scholarship head consumed a lot of time before they can finish recording all the transactions per day. One thing that makes it complicated is that there are tons of data that needs to be updated about the scholars each time. It takes a month or few for the scholarship head to readily update the records.
