current business processes, and other information systems
to provide value. Process modeling is a stage in system

understood task in SDLC. In Nigeria, many universities
are on the race of design and implementation of e-Bursary
system. To have an outstanding e-Bursary System, system
analysts need to understand and use the available
techniques to document system requirements, and to
convey the range of issues that need to be understood by
system developers for developing e-Bursary Information
