Challenge & approach

Challenge

Private higher-education institutions run registration, timetabling, assessment, fees, bursaries and statutory reporting on disconnected spreadsheets and point systems. Each institution needs one platform, but with strict separation between students, lecturers, sponsors, guardians and administrators.

Our approach

inCollege was designed as a single-institution-per-deployment platform: a Laravel API with token authentication and role-based policies, a React/TypeScript web client and a Flutter mobile app for student, lecturer, sponsor and guardian portals. Finance, academic and compliance modules share one student record, and every deployment ships with provisioning, backup and security-check tooling.

What was delivered

  • Registration, admissions, programmes, sections, prerequisites and waitlists
  • Timetabling with clash detection; QR-code attendance and at-risk / exam-eligibility rules
  • Marks, transcripts, graduation, WIL placements and logbooks
  • Invoices, payment plans, online payments, collections, refunds with two-person approval
  • NSFAS applications and allowances; bursary and sponsor disbursements
  • Guardian portal with per-link consent; email and SMS announcements
  • DHET / SETA / SAQA compliance submissions and exports
  • Security-first test suite covering authorisation boundaries, privilege escalation and payment replay
