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 page 212 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 or an equivalent time at the University in order to meet the residence
requirement.

The Master's degree may be obtained by properly qualified students in three
Summer Quarters. In no case will this degree be conferred upon any person who
has not attended and done 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 1929 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.
