B. Electives-at-Large and Major Group.
In addition to the session-hours required in group-electives, all
candidates must offer 12 session-hours of electives-at-large, chosen
from the courses given in the groups above, or from the courses open
to graduates and undergraduates in the graduate department (C
courses). Candidates who offer both Latin and Greek, i. e., 12 session-hours
in Group I (p. 183), are credited as having absolved three
session-hours of electives-at-large, and are required to offer only 9
additional session-hours of electives-at-large. English B1 may be
offered as an elective-at-large either in Group I (Language), or in
Group V (English). One C course offered as an elective-at-large will
have a credit value of 6 session-hours. Of the 12 session-hours of
electives-at-large, not less than 9 session-hours must be offered from
some one group to be known as the candidate's major group.
Substitutions Allowed for Electives-at-Large.
Candidates who have completed in this college 48 session-hours
of group-electives may offer, instead of 12 session-hours of electives-at-large,
the first year course in the Department of Law, or
in the Department of Medicine, or 12 session-hours of technical
courses in the Department of Engineering.
Time Required for Obtaining the Degree of Bachelor of Arts or the
Cultural Degree of Bachelor of Science.
Students in the College are required to undertake each session
courses aggregating not less than 15 nor more than 18 session-hours.
For students, therefore, who enter without advanced standing the
normal time required for graduation is 4 years. A student receiving
advanced standing on not less than two A courses may obtain
a baccalaureate degree in three years if he is able to complete the
maximum course of 18 session-hours each session.
College credit will be given for courses in certain subjects offered
in the Summer School of this university, so that a student by
work in the Summer School may materially shorten the time required
for obtaining a baccalaureate degree. Students entering from
other colleges of recognized standing may be credited with not more
than 45 session-hours, and must, therefore, spend at least one year
in residence and complete not less than 15 session-hours of work in
this college. The programmes of studies offered by such candidates
must moreover satisfy all the requirements above stated, as to group-electives,
electives-at-large and the major group.
