Abstract

In most educational institutions, the computerized selection system (CSS) consists of a collection of different hardware and software requiring disparate supporting infrastructures and offering little in the way of integration. However, university admission is no exception, but it is organized very differently throughout the world. Thus, the goal is to determine the challenges in the use of the computerized system for admission into colleges of education affiliated with the University of Cape Coast. The methodology for the study was a descriptive design with a quantitative method. The total population for the study was 255, with a sample size of 192 admission officers, quality assurance staff, and heads of departments. The results of the study show that one of the challenges of a computerized system for admission is that the system forces some candidates initially selected to grant their place in the list to others far behind. The study’s findings discovered a negative weak association between the challenges of using a computerized system for admission and its’ efficiency.
