Association rules discovery is one of the vital data mining techniques.Currently there is an increasing interest in data mining and educational systems, making educational data mining (EDM) as a new growing research community.In this paper, we present a model for association rules discovery from King Abdulaziz University (KAU) admission system data.The main objective is to extract the rules and relations between admission system attributes for better analysis.The model utilizes an apriori algorithm for association rule mining.Detailed analysis and interpretation of the experimental results is presented with respect to admission office perspective.
