I. Regulations Concerning the Cultural Degree of
Bachelor of Science.
(1) Selection and Number of Courses.
Unless admitted to advanced standing (p. 81) the candidate
must select the required thirteen courses as follows:
(a) A Courses: The candidate must complete the work of English Literature
1A, and of Mathematics 1A.(b) B Courses: The candidate must complete the work of eight B Courses,
selected from the six groups given above (p. 159), as follows: two B
Courses must be selected from Group I, and neither of these shall be a
Course in Latin or Greek; one B Course must be selected from Group
II; two from Group III; one from Group IV; one from Group V,
and one from Group VI.(c) B or C Courses: The candidate must complete the work of three courses
selected from the electives-at-large, in accordance with section (3), below,
of these regulations. [See also Section (4)].
First-Year Students receiving no advanced standing should take
English Literature 1A, Mathematics 1A, a foreign language
from Group I, and a Natural Science from Group III.
(2) Time Required for Obtaining the B. S. Degree.
All undergraduates, except first-year students who enter without
advanced standing (Section (1) ), are required to undertake
the work of three courses each session; and of only three unless
otherwise authorized by the Academic Faculty. Hence the
time normally required for obtaining the degree of Bachelor
of Science, by the candidate who enters without advanced standing,
is four years. (See also Section (4), (b), below.)
The candidate who enters, with advanced standing, from
another College (p. 81), must devote at least one full session
exclusively to Collegiate work here, and must complete the
work of at least three of the required B Courses, (Section (1) ),
candidate must satisfy all the requirements of the B. S. degree
as here established.
(3) Electives-at-Large, and Major Group.
Each elective-at-large consists of a B Course or a C Course of
which the precedent B Course has been completed. After having
selected eight B Courses in accordance with Section (1),
(b), of these regulations, the candidate may offer as an elective-at-large
any B Course, not already selected, described under
the head of the Academic Schools, pp. 115-157, or any C Course,
of which the precedent B Course has been completed, described
under the head of the Academic Schools, pp. 115-157.
But in every case at least two of the electives-at-large must be
selected from the subjects of some one of the six groups (p. 159);
and this group is to be known as the Candidate's Major Group.
(4) Substitutions Allowed for Electives-at-Large.
The candidate who has satisfied the requirements of Section
(1), (a) and (b), of these regulations, will be permitted to offer
in lieu the three electives-at-large, (Section (1), (c) ), the work
of the first year in the Department of Law, or of Medicine,
or any three technical courses in the Department of Engineering.
Thus the candidate who desires to obtain both the B. S.
degree and a professional degree, may save one year of the
time required for both degrees.
