COURSES AND EXPENSES OF SPECIAL STUDENTS.
Applicants for admission to the Engineering Department, who are
twenty years old, and desire to enter for the pursuit of special elective
courses, must present adequate proofs of good character and of the needful
maturity and training. Such applicants are then registered as Special
Students, and are admitted without formal examination to the privileges
of the University, but not as candidates for any titled degree.
The Expenses of special students, and of all students who pursue elective
courses, are the same as those of regular students, except as to fees
for tuition. The fee for each class taken will be $25, with the addition of
the prescribed laboratory charges, which are $5 for each class in Applied
Mathematics, Engineering, and Physics; $10 for Inorganic Chemistry. For
Analytical Chemistry a special fee of $50 is charged for tuiton, plus $10
for apparatus and supplies.
Under the general elective plan of this University, many young
men, who cannot afford to take the regular four-year course, qualify themselves
by such special elective studies for highly successful professional
careers. Any student, who possesses a good working knowledge of Pure
Mathematics, including the processes of the Differential and Integral Calculus,
and some acquaintance with the Natural Sciences, may attempt with
success the following shorter course in Engineering:
First Year.—Applied Mathematics 1 and 2. Engineering 1.
Second Year.—Applied Mathematics 3 and 4. Engineering 2.
Upon its completion he receives a diploma of graduation in Applied
Mathematics and Engineering. No student, who is deficient in mathematics,
will be allowed to enter upon this special course.
