ANNOUNCEMENTS.
The Summer Quarter of the University is an integral part of the University
Year, the Courses in the College of Arts and Sciences being the
same in character, method and in credit value as in the other quarters. In
the Department of Education many professional courses for elementary and
high school teachers which are not offered in the regular session are given
to meet certificate requirements. The Summer Quarter is divided into two
terms for the accommodation of those who can give only six weeks to the
work but who desire University credit. The First Term will begin June
18th, and will close July 28th, with lectures five times a week. The Second
Term will begin July 30th, and will close September 1st, with six lectures
a week. Students may enter for either term or both. A separate registration
card must be filled out for each Term.
The normal amount of work for college credit which a student may
take, is three courses aggregating three session-hours.
A student may take four session-hours, provided he (a) has passed
in the regular session at the college last attended courses aggregating fifteen
session-hours, or (b) is in his graduating year and needs four session-hours
for his degree.
Exceptions to the above regulations will be allowed only by special
permission of the Dean of the Summer Quarter and all of the professors
concerned.
Physical training is not counted in the maximum and minimum requirements
detailed above.
FEES.
For Non-Virginia Students.—A single registration fee of $20 for each
will entitle the student to enter any of the courses outlined in the catalogue,
except a few special courses which are so designated. The fee for graduate
students will be $15 for each course, only two courses being allowed.
For Virginia Students.—Students from Virginia who are not teachers or
preparing to teach next session will be charged the same tuition as non-Virginia
students.
Tuition is entirely free to all Virginia teachers in all the regular courses
leading to the professional certificates. To meet local expenses, the State
Board of Education has fixed a registration fee of $3.00 for a six weeks'
term for all the summer schools of the State, and this fee will be charged
here. There are a few special courses offered to meet certain demands, but
not necessary for certificate credit, for which fees will be charged. The fee
for each is designated in the catalogue. Small extra fees are charged in
laboratory courses.
However, Virginia teachers will be charged an extra fee of $7.50 for
each graduate course taken.
EXPENSES.
Board and Rooms.—Board and rooms may be had at prices ranging from
$7.50 per week, where several stay in the same room, upward, according to
accommodation and proximity to the University, the average being $7.50 to
$10.00 a week. Most of the boarding houses immediately adjoin the university
grounds. The University Commons conducts a first-class cafeteria at
which meals may be obtained at very low rates. The average cost per
month for three meals a day last year was approximately $22.50.
Two hundred and twenty-five double rooms in the university dormitories
will be reserved in the order of application upon the following terms: For a
term, $6.00 for each person, two persons assigned to each room. No reduction
will be made for parts of a term. Applications for rooms must be accompanied
by the full amount of the fee in order to have them reserved. The
amount of the fee will be returned for good reason, and room released if application
is made before June 10. No rooms will be rented to any person who
does not register and pay the fee in the Summer Quarter.

CREDITS AND DEGREES.
Degrees are conferred upon men and women for work done in the
Summer Quarter when the degree requirements are fully met. Sixty-three
session-hours of undergraduate courses, taken in conformity with the requirements
published on pages 155-160 are required for the Bachelor's degree.
Those who contemplate completing their degree requirements in the Summer
Quarter should keep clearly in mind, in estimating the time that will be
required, that the normal amount of credit which may be taken in one
Summer Quarter is six session-hours.
Candidates who desire credit for work done at other colleges must satisfy
the entrance requirements for regular students and must, in addition, file
with the Dean of the Summer Quarter a certificate covering the courses for
which college credit is desired. This certificate must be acceptable both to
the Dean and to the professor in charge of the course accredited. The certificate
must bear the official signature of the head of the candidate's college
and must specify the character and content of the courses passed by the
candidate and must give his grade. In every case the candidate must spend
at least three full Summer Quarters at the University in order to meet the
residence requirement.
The Master's degree may be obtained in three Summer Quarters. In no
case is this degree to be conferred upon any person who has not attended
and done graduate work three full Summer Quarters or the equivalent time
in the regular session of the University. A larger number of graduate
courses will be offered in the Summer Quarter of 1923 in order to meet the
increased demand for graduate work.
All persons who are looking forward ultimately to taking a degree through
summer work are urgently requested to file with the Dean of the Summer
Quarter an official statement of entrance credits and work for which college
credit is desired.
PRE-MEDICAL REQUIREMENTS.
Courses covering all the required subjects for entrance to the first year
of the Medical School, as described on page 234 of this catalogue, are
offered in the Summer Quarter so that it is possible for the student to meet
the pre-medical requirements in two summer quarters and one regular session
of the University.
PRE-LAW REQUIREMENTS.
Courses are offered in the Summer Quarter covering all the required
college work for admission to the Department of Law, see page 218 of this
catalogue.
