The charges for Tuition are uniform to all students, except that Virginians
are relieved of tuition on courses offered in the College, this exception saving
regular Freshmen from Virginia $135 and all other Virginia students $70 each
year in comparison with non-Virginians.
The laboratory charges are $15 per class for the year's course in Physics,
and $20 per class for a year's course in Chemistry. A deposit for breakage of $5
is required for each laboratory course in Chemistry. A fee of $5 for the year's
course in Engineering Geology is charged. The fee for each practice course in
the Engineering Department, Drawing, and Engineering Laboratories is $5 per
term for each course. The fees for Field-work and Bridge Drafting are each $10
per term per course. These fees include all charges for laboratory materials; but
the student is held further responsible for breakage.
The Living Expenses include board, lodging, fuel and lights, servant and
laundry; the average is $10.00 per week, the minimum $7.50, and a reasonable
maximum $12.50. Books and Drawing Materials will cost about $120 for the
four-year course. Incidental Expenses ought to be kept within modest bounds;
the above estimate is sufficient; large allowances of pocket money promote idleness
and attract companions of the baser sort. No allowances are included for
clothing and travel, the expenses for which vary too much to be introduced into
any general estimate.
The charges payable on entrance are the University Fee, the Athletic Fee,
the Topics Fee, and the Tuition and Laboratory Fees.
Payment of Fees.—When the aggregate charge for University fee, tuition
fee, laboratory fees, and room rent does not exceed $50 for the session,
the total amount shall be paid upon registration.
If said fees aggregate more than $50, but do not exceed $100, one-half
thereof shall be paid upon registration and the remainder at the beginning of the
second term.
When the fees aggregate more than $100, payment shall be made one-third
upon registration; one-third at the opening of the second term and the
remainder at the opening of the third term.
If any payment remain unpaid for fifteen days after the date on which it
is due, the Bursar shall immediately notify the Dean of the Department in
which such student is entered of the delinquency, and such student shall by
him be required at once to cease attending lectures, using laboratories, library,
gymnasium, athletic grounds or buildings, boarding at the dining hall, and
making use of any other privileges as a student until his financial relations with
the University have been arranged satisfactorily with the Bursar.
Return of Fees.—A student withdrawing within five days after registering
shall have his fees refunded in full, except the sum of $5 to cover cost
of registration, and his name shall be stricken from the rolls.
If he withdraw or is dropped from the rolls for any cause after the
fifth day of the term and before the middle thereof, his fees shall be returned
pro rata.
If he withdraw or be dropped from the rolls for any cause after the middle
of any term no refund shall be made for that term, except in case of sickness
when the refund shall be pro-rated upon certificate of the University
Physician or other reputable medical practitioner.
In any case a minimum charge of $5 shall be made to cover cost of
registration.
Laboratory fees shall be refunded upon statement of professor in charge
except where the withdrawal is within five days after registering.
Regulation Concerning Registration as Virginia Student.—In order to
be considered a Virginia student, it is necessary that the applicant's parents
be domiciled in the State if he be under twenty-one years of age; or if
he has attained his majority, that he himself be domiciled in said State; and
that either his parents or the applicant for admission shall have been bona
fide taxpayers in the State of Virginia for at least two years prior to said
application.

Corps, Coast Guard, or Public Health Service, whether on the active or retired
list, irrespective of the location of their posts of duty, are accorded
the privilege of registering under the rules applicable to the registration of
Virginia students.
