Abstract
The optimum condition for students to study is in an environment
where they can access virtually all they need to know about courses, lecturers,
locate places (for fresh and prospective students), validate staff identity, access
past examination questions easily, identify vacant student hostels within and
outside the school premises. Some of the reasons for students’ failure can be
attributed to finding accommodation within or outside the school premises.
Also, fresh students find it difficult to locate specific places in the university
environment and some students find it very difficult to interact with staff. This
paper presents a student self-service portal to address some of these challenges.
Unified Modeling Language (UML) was used to model the system. The model
was implemented using Microsoft C#, Microsoft ASP.net, Microsoft SQL
Server, and Google Map. The proposed system was tested and the result
obtained during the execution shows that the system is capable of addressing
some of the challenges confronted by students.
