Pupils' Hub

Introduction

  The intention behind creating this website was to simplify the various processes associated with the hostel management. Checking the availability of rooms, allocation of rooms, managing hostel fees, and all such hostel management activities manually consume time, effort, and resources. Moreover, the privacy and security of student information is also an important aspect of hostel management. Keeping in mind all the hostel management concerns of students, Pupils’ Hub is designed and developed. Right from students’ registration to allocating rooms, and transaction fees, it automates all day-to-day hostel activities.

Users can perform the following actions:

• Secure user login to the system
• Viewing/updating personal information
• Viewing announcements
• Hostel application
• Accepted candidates can complete their payment via our payment portal
• For any kind of harassment, they can complain to the hostel authority

Admins can perform the following actions:

• Secure user login to the system
• Viewing and updating personal information
• Creating, viewing, and deleting announcements
• Viewing the pending applications
• Viewing details of room availability
• Approving or rejecting a particular application
• Room allocation (after the successful transaction of the user)
• Reallocation of rooms to students
• Updating the details of the hostelites
• Deleting a hostelite
• Creating new admins
• Removing an admin
