APPROXIMATE SUMMARY OF NECESSARY EXPENSES

The figures in the following tables may be taken as fairly accurate
approximations of all necessary expenses for a session of nine months. As
necessary expenses are reckoned here university and tuition fees, laboratory
fees, lodging, board, laundry, and books, but not clothing, traveling expenses,
or pocket money. For each department three estimates are given—
a low, an average, and a liberal estimate. The difference in the three depends
on the difference of expenditure for board, lodging, books, and laundry
—in other words, on the scale of living of the individual student. If a student
shares a room with another student, and practices the strictest economy,
he may possibly reduce his expenses below the low estimate.
