Student Records System SRS - Preliminary Planning Overview The School of Prosperity (Sop) is a small Information Technology & Science school located in the nation’s capital of Washington, D.C. The school serves a growing student population of about 5000 students by offering programs leading to the Bachelor and Master degrees in IT and Software development. SoP has, traditionally, offered most of its classes in a face-to-face modality. Recently and because of the increased demands of student enrollments, the school started to offer some of its classes online as well. The school staff currently uses an in-house desktop application to keep track of students, courses, and to register students for classes. School staff has to be physically in the office in order to access the in-house application. To register for a class (either face-to-face or online class), a student must complete a paper registration form, submit it to the school staff, and the staff will then enter the registration information into the desktop application. This process always generates many errors in moving from the paper form to the electronic registration filing. Moreover, since there are so many add/drops at the beginning of each semester, the school staff experiences a higher than normal work volume handling these add/drop forms preventing them for completing other tasks allocated to them like staff development and training.
