<![CDATA[Determining the eligibility of students to receive educational assistance is an essential process that requires accurate, objective, and systematic evaluation. At SD Negeri Tipar, the selection process is still conducted manually through conventional assessment and administrative checking, which often leads to inefficiency, data inconsistencies, and difficulties in determining fair and accountable decisions. To address these challenges, a web-based Decision Support System was developed using the Simple Multi-Attribute Rating Technique (SMART) method. This system evaluates students based on several social-related criteria, including parental income, parental occupation, number of dependents, housing ownership, and access to educational facilities.
