Abstract
Managing the student’s accommodation application process at College of Agriculture
Lafia is a complex and time-sensitive task. This research work deals with the problems of
managing and allocating hostels to students in College of Agriculture Lafia and to avoid
the problems which occur when carried out manually. The aim of this research work
“Online Hostel Management System” is to develop a web based system with a central
database that will automatically allocate rooms to students, manage records related to the
hostel, the system designed will keep track of all the available hostel rooms, their
occupants and fund generated from hostel fee. Information for this research work was
collected from two forms of data which are primary and secondary data. These are done
by semi structured interviews and exploitation of the services of the library from
textbooks, journals, internet and other materials for purpose of better understanding. The
new system was implemented using PHP and MySQL. The result of the research is a
Hostel Management and Allocation System for College of Agriculture Lafia.vi
