RESOLVED by the Board of Visitors of The Rector and Visitors of the University of Virginia that,
effective 1 September 1963, the following regulations shall apply to all students at Mary Washington
College and shall be published each year in the catalogue of the College

Mary Washington College Regulations

Nature of Regulations

The information contained in these student regulations constitutes an abbreviated statement of
policies which are explained more fully in the College catalogue and other authorized publications of
the College. These regulations and any other information conveyed to students, or to prospective
students, are subject to change at any time by the appropriate authority

Residence Requirements

All students, except those living in their own homes and attending as day students, are required
to live in the College residence halls. Enrollees, having been duly accepted for admission and
notified by the proper authority, should report, at the time and date specified in the College
announcements, directly to the Resident Counsellor in the dormitory to which she has been assigned

Registration

Registration - Applicants seeking matriculation at the College should present themselves to the
Registrar or his representative on the date specified in the College announcements

Delayed Registration - Any student who fails to present herself at the times specified for
registration will not be permitted to matriculate unless she can explain her delay to the satisfaction
of the Registrar. If admitted after explanation, the student will be charged a delayed
registration fee of fifteen dollars, ten dollars of which may be waived by the Registrar for proper
cause

Health Requirements - Each year, each student is required to present a certificate from her
family physician indicating the results of a physical examination made not more than two months prior
to the beginning of the session. If this approved health certificate is not on file at the time the
student registers for classes, a fee of five dollars will be charged for its late filing

Withholding Academic Credit - Grades, diplomas, and transcripts of credits will be withheld for
students and former students who have failed to meet their official financial obligations

Class Attendance - Students are required to attend classes regularly throughout the session,
except within the framework of excused absences as described in detail in the College catalogue

Honor Pledge - Registration at the College is considered incomplete until each student has
signed a pledge card certifying that she has familiarized herself with the Honor System code and
understands fully what is expected of her

Withdrawal

Voluntary Withdrawal - Any student desiring to withdraw from the College for any reason, must
have the approval of the Dean of Students and the consent of parent or guardian if she is a minor

Enforced Withdrawal - The College reserves the right to request the withdrawal of any student
whose academic standing, conduct, or general attitude is in its judgment unsatisfactory. Further,
the College will enforce the dismissal of a student certified by the Honor Committee to be guilty of
a breach of the Honor System

Conduct

A handbook containing the Student Government and administrative regulations is presented to
each student upon matriculation. It is expected that students will become thoroughly acquainted
with the College regulations and conduct themselves as ladies at all times, both within the College
and outside its jurisdiction. Students are expected to have their guests conform to these
regulations

For student conduct which is outside the jurisdiction of the Honor Committee but which tends to
discredit or injure the College, the Chancellor is authorized by the Board of Visitors to impose
such penalty as he may deem appropriate, including expulsion from the College. This authority has
been delegated by the Chancellor to the Student Judicial Council, or to the Joint Council, subject
to review by the Chancellor or his delegated representative. When the penalty for bad conduct is
expulsion, the student may appeal the decision to the Board of Visitors

Registration of Vehicles

Automobiles - Only Seniors are permitted to have cars on the campus. They must maintain a "C"
average and have the written permission of their parents or guardians before bringing their own or
family automobiles to College, where they must be registered immediately with the Dean of Students.

Bicycles - Any student bringing a bicycle to the College is required to license it in accordance
with the regulations of the City of Fredericksburg.

Solicitors and Salesmen

Solicitors and salesmen, except those on official business with the College, are not permitted
on the campus without special permission arranged through the Office of the Dean of Students.
Students who act as representatives, distributors, salesmen or collectors for outside organizations
must also make special arrangements through this office.

Social Events

An active and varied social program is conducted by the College and its approved organizations
However, any organization or group of students wishing to present a dance or any other social event
must first obtain permission and approval of arrangements from the Dean of Students

Fees and Expenses

student's, or her parents' legal residency

and Board of Visitors, shall be as follows

Payment of Fees - All fees and expenses are payable in full in advance of the opening date of
