## Overview

LOBI-College-MIS is a desktop college management system. Its visible user workflow is entering through the Swing application, navigating dashboard work areas, and managing student registry and academic or administrative records, with database-backed reads and writes. The tree also documents accounts, procurement, examinations, reporting, and student information capabilities. Source excerpts are partial, so links between unsampled screens and subsystems are left out rather than assumed.
