In an era of increasing competitiveness in higher education admissions, finding effective methods to sort and filter out students based on specific criteria is crucial for admissions officers.

This research aims to address this issue by exploring the potential of an innovative software application that incorporates interactive storytelling elements to enhance the standard admissions processes.
