Student Information Management Systems (SIMS) are vital for managing academic and administrative processes. At the Institute of Public Administration and Management - University of Sierra Leone (IPAM - USL), current practices remain largely manual, leading to delays, errors, and inefficiencies. This study explores the challenges and prospects of implementing an AI-powered SIMS at IPAM. The objectives include assessing existing practices, identifying user expectations, and examining factors influencing adoption. A mixed-methods approach was employed. Structured questionnaires were administered to 60 students and 11 lecturers. Quantitative data were analysed using descriptive statistics, while qualitative responses were examined through thematic analysis. Findings reveal under-utilisation of the current SIMS and strong demand for real-time updates, automation, and mobile access. It is recommended that IPAMUSL adopt a fully integrated, AI-powered SIMS with mobile optimisation and user training to enhance efficiency and engagement.
