    • 1.3    OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
      The objectives of this project include:
      To effectively and efficiently process students clearance

        To ensure prompt clearance
        To alleviate the problems and stress of travelling and queuing up of students during clearance.
      1.4    SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
      The project work will help in a good number of ways to ease the queuing system in the university as the online clearance system will help
      students to achieve whatever they want to achieve without coming to the various offices for clearance.

      o    It is inexpensive to students and school management.
      Help the school in reducing costs such as labour and stationary.
      1.5    SCOPE OF THE STUDY
      This research work is limited to clearance system for graduating students from Caritas University. The software developed will be carried out using HTML, Visual Basic and Ms Access to manage both the database and at the same time make the software online.
      1.6    LIMITATIONS
      This project covers all aspect of online clearance system using Caritas University as a case study. However, the following were the constraints:
      Time constraints: Due to time constraint, the web – page developed covers only clearance from various departments by the graduating students.
      Financial constraints: It would cost a lot to develop a full web – based clearance system.
