LAW SCHOOL ACCEPTANCE DEPOSIT

The following proposal from the School of Law was recommended by the President for
adoption

PROPOSAL FOR AN ACCEPTANCE DEPOSIT OF
$50 FROM ALL ENTERING LAW STUDENTS

Applications Received Prior to June 20

Beginning with the entering class of 1956 all applicants who have been accepted must
deposit $50 with the Law School Admission Office on or before June 20 or within one
week of acceptance, whichever is later. The purpose of such deposit is to facilitate
the Law School in determining the number of entering students in order not to prejudice
delayed applications. All deposits will be credited on tuition. Refunds will be
granted on request if received on or before June 20.

Requests for refunds received after June 20 will be granted only for compelling cause,
such as illness or military service

Applications Received After June 20

All applications submitted after June 20 must be accompanied by a tuition deposit
of $50. Requests for refunds will be granted only if the application is rejected
or for compelling cause, such as illness or military service.

After discussion the Board resolved that the foregoing proposal be approved and adopted.
