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 147-149 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. The demand for graduate work in the Summer
Session of 1921 was so great that in future sessions the number of graduate
courses will be largely increased.

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. Blanks for this purpose will be mailed upon application to the Dean
of the Summer Quarter.
