This paper proposes an Android Application for College Bus tracking and Campus Notification. This application consists of eight modules. They are Authentication, Student Profile, Admin panel, Circular sharing, Suggestion Box, Discussion Forum, Result Publishing and Bus tracking. In daily operation of the college, students face many problems such as missing the college bus, unaware of circulars, viewing exam results and much more. The college buses are interrupted by uncertain conditions such as traffic, unexpected delays, etc. In such conditions student doesn’t know the location of the bus and they are confused to take alternate decisions for reaching the college. Due to this problems, students may come late to the classes. Also the absentees may not be aware of the circulars of the day that are circulated in the college and also the student have to take additional effort to read notice board and view circulars. The students are suffering lot to check their result during result publication because of the network traffic caused by the centralized server. Many of the colleges does not have a forum to discuss the subjects with their staffs and co-students. Most of the students do not aware of the suggestion box and they feel hesitated to write complaints to the suggestion box. The above said problems are solved by introducing an android application.
