12. Significance of the Study
12
Locale. The proposed study aimed to help MQCPI to
maximize its resources and provide a cost-effective
centralized information system that will speed up the
process of enrollment system of the school.
Admission Office. The study was developed to aid
the admission office in handling applicant’s
information efficiently during enrollment period.
13. Significance of the Study

inconveniences being encountered by the students
during enrollment period.
Future Researchers. The proposed study served the
future researchers as a reference in conducting
related study.
15. Scope and Delimitation of the Study
15
▰ The study focused on bringing together the different
offices of MQCPI that are affected during enrollment
process into a single system to ensure that the offices
will function as one to provide quality enrollment
procedures.
