REGISTRATION.
Registration of New Students.—Applicants seeking admission to
the University for the first time are required to present themselves
to the Dean of the University at his office in the Administration
Building at some time during the first three days of the session. Each
candidate for admission must be at least sixteen years of age. In
each instance a certificate of good moral character must be presented,
signed by the proper official of the institution attended during the previous
session, or by some person of known standing. Each candidate
who satisfies these requirements, and also those for admission by
diploma, certificate, or examination previously stated, will be directed
to the Dean of the Department which-he purposes to enter.
The Dean in question will, upon being satisfied that the candidate
is fitted to enter upon the work of the Department, issue to him a
card containing the names of the courses which the candidate proposes
to pursue during the session: this card must be presented in turn to
each professor concerned, who will, on satisfying himself that the
applicant is prepared to pursue the course in question with profit, sign
the card and enter the applicant's name upon the roll of the class. The
card must then be returned to the Dean of the University, who will
endorse upon it the amount of fees to be paid to the Bursar. On payment
of these fees the registration (for the session) of the applicant as
a student of the University will be completed.
Registration of Matriculated Students.—Students who have already
been matriculated as members of the University are required to
present themselves directly to the Deans of their respective Departments
upon one of the first three days of the session, and to conform,
as regards their registration in their respective classes and the payment
of fees, to the requirements stated in the preceding paragraph.
Registration after the Christmas Recess.—On the first week-day
after the Christmas Recess every student is required to register with
the Dean of his department between the hours of nine a. m. and two
p. m. Any student failing to register thus, will have his name
dropped from the rolls of his classes until further order from the Dean,
but such student may be registered by the Dean and restored to his
position in his classes on payment to the Bursar of the delayed registration
fee of $3.00.
In case the delay in the student's return is due to illness, or to
other like providential cause, the Dean is authorized to remit the fee
and excuse the absence; in every other case the absences due to delayed
to the parent or guardian of the student; and shall be given
serious adverse weight in considering the fitness of the student for
graduation.
Delayed Registration.—Students are not permitted to delay their
registration through carelessness or for inadequate reasons. Any
student, new or old, who fails to present himself for registration
during the first three days of the session and between the hours of
nine a. m. and two p. m. on the first week-day after the Christmas
Recess will (except in the case of an applicant admitted to special examinations,
as provided in a previous paragraph) be admitted to registration
only upon the consent of the President, and will be charged
a special registration fee of three dollars.
