This module provides a foundational understanding of building an online admission system using Java Servlets, JSP, and PostgreSQL. Learners are introduced to the system's overall structure, including the student login process, database design, JDBC connectivity, and the core Java classes involved in form validation and data handling. The module lays the technical groundwork for implementing secure, database-driven web applications in Java.

This module focuses on constructing the core data collection forms that drive the online admission process. Learners will develop forms to capture institutional preferences, personal details, academic background, and general information. They will also implement form validation techniques and file upload functionality to enable applicants to submit essential documents such as photographs and academic certificates. Through hands-on examples, the module emphasizes best practices in structuring, validating, and organizing multi-step web forms using Java, JSP, and PostgreSQL.

This module guides learners through the final stages of the online admission process, including submission, payment, verification, and merit list generation. Learners will implement features that allow students to finalize and print their applications, integrate a secure payment gateway, and facilitate administrative actions such as document verification and application rejection. The module concludes with logic for generating the merit list based on academic performance. By the end of this module, learners will understand how to handle form submission securely, validate application data, and execute end-to-end decision workflows in a real-world web application.
