INTRODUCTION
The pervasiveness of information technology (IT) has revolutionized data and information
management in the new global and digital economy. IT includes all technologies that enable
the capture and collection, storage, processing, dissemination and exchange of information.
The academic sector continues to acknowledge the increasing role and demands of IT and
many educational institutions have adopted information systems as facilitators in the
teaching-learning process, as well as enablers in carrying out effective and efficient
administrative operations.
Majority of higher education institutions (HEIs) have annual IT expenditures of more than
one million pesos. Internet connectivity is available in these HEIs, with the fastest bandwidths
at 16-20 megabits per second (mbps) and the least at one mbps. Moreover, the enrolment and
grading system was found out to be the information system that is most developed in- house,
while the library IS was the most outsourced [ CITATION Mar12 \l 1033 ].

environments, specific objectives of organizations are invariably met with information
technology for efficiency of task performance [ CITATION Sta12 \l 1033 ].

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
Information Systems in Organizations
Information systems (IS) converge the IT infrastructure with data, people and processes
and, have become instrumental in the attainment of the organizational goals such as
maximizing revenues, minimizing costs, improving decision making, and enhancing
relationships with customers, clients and partners. Several trends which have made the use of
IS very important in organizations and business processes [ CITATION OzE07 \l 1033 ]. For
instance, the power of computers has grown tremendously while their prices have dropped.
Also, the variety and ingenuity of computer programs have increased, and quick and reliable
communication lines and access to the Internet and the Web have become widely available
and affordable. Oz likewise pointed to the fact that the fast growth of the Internet has
opened opportunities and encouraged competition in global markets that are now run by an
increasingly computer literate global workforce.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS
The Manual Application Process
Application for admission to any of the graduate program at UPV starts with an applicant
securing an application form that is addressed to the dean of the college, submission of the
accomplished form together with proof of payment and required documents, and ends with
the issuance of notice of acceptance or non-acceptance for admission.
