University of Virginia Library

EXPENSES

Students in the School of Commerce are subject only
to the regular fees of the academic departments. The necessary
expenses of a Virginia Student (all University fees,
board and room, books and laundry) need not exceed
$245 for the session. The actual expenses are usually

greater than this, but are largely within the control of the
student himself. One who is willing to practice strict economy
can live at a more reasonable cost at the University
of Virginia than at most institutions of similar rank.

Free tuition in the academic departments, equivalent to a
scholarship worth $125, is given to each student from Virginia.
There are also available for deserving students many
scholarships, including thirty which yield from $250 to $600
a year. Moreover, there are 119 scholarships for prospective
Virginia teachers, ten endowed fellowships, and seven
loan funds.

Rooms may be had in one of the University dormitories
and meals may be obtained either in the University cafeteria
or in an approved private boarding house. If preferred
both room and board may be obtained in such boarding
house. Good, wholesome food is served at the University
cafeteria at costs ranging from $20 to $30 per month.
Many of the students are finding it possible to board at the
lower rate.
