The exponential growth of technology creates opportunity for numerous sorts of application to be produced, and education is one of the sectors which significantly impacted by this technological advancement. As such, we can witness various kinds of mobile applications being developed for higher education recently. Therefore, it is important to produce an application which contributes to better degree of user satisfaction in higher education context. This study involved performing user acceptance test and measuring the users’ satisfaction using System Usability Scale (SUS) towards a graduation mobile application that runs on two platforms; web and mobile. A number of 45 participants involved in the assessments and the results disclose a significant correlation between the SUS scores and number of issues reported, where the application has agreeably met the users’ satisfaction by passing the acceptable marginal level with 73.7 score.
