Educational Loan Scheme Management System: the Case of Loaning Tuition Fees to Students in Uganda Nathan Nsamba

This study was made on Educational Loans Management, researchers have identified that many of the students in Uganda drop out of school at the higher level of learning due to lack of funds and as result, majority of Ugandans fail to complete their education at its final stages. There is therefore a need to avail loans to the students who have been admitted at these institutions as a remedy to this problem. This further creates another question of how these loans are going to be managed that is, track the disbursements and payments so as to make the system efficient and sustainable. The answer to this question was the development of an Educational Loan Management System. The methodologies used in collecting data included reading about how similar kinds of systems has been implemented and managed in countries that offer educational loans and then relating them with our country?s situation to find the best way to implement a similar system that would be efficient despite the different economies. The proposed system was designed using the data model and the process model, using the Entity Relationship Diagram and the Data Flow Diagram respectively.
