<![CDATA[The new student admission process is an important activity in educational institutions to ensure that prospective students meet the established admission criteria. However, the selection process is often conducted manually, making it less efficient and prone to subjective assessments. This study aims to implement a data mining classification approach using the K-Nearest Neighbors (K-NN) method to support decision-making in the new student admission process at Yapmi Boarding School. The research utilizes historical admission data consisting of academic scores, interview results, and other admission criteria as classification attributes. The K-NN algorithm was applied to classify prospective students into accepted and rejected categories based on the similarity of their characteristics to previously evaluated applicants. The research methodology includes data collection, preprocessing, classification modeling, and performance evaluation using accuracy metrics. The results demonstrate that the K-NN method is capable of classifying prospective students effectively and can assist admission committees in making more objective and accurate decisions. The implementation of this model contributes to improving the efficiency, consistency, and reliability of the student admission process at Yapmi Boarding School. Therefore, the K-NN algorithm can be considered a viable alternative for supporting educational admission decision systems.]]>
