...Introduction on Enrollment System Sample Introduction Background of the study the enrollment system we have proposed and proposing is for the school named “Marisyl School” which was the school that is privately owned and privately managed but then, the enrollment system on the said school is still in manual.

This can result in a system with well-integrated processes that can perform much faster and more accurate than a manual system. Enrollment is the process of entering and verifying data of student to register on a particular school. Different interrelated processes build up enrollment procedures called Enrollment System (ES). ES are used particularly in recording and retrieving student’s information. Tracking student’s information...
