The charges for Tuition are uniform to all students, except that Virginians
are relieved of tuition on certain courses, 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.
