University of Virginia Library

EXPENSES.

The necessary expenses of a student in the Medical Department are
for the session of nine months as follows:

                     
University Fees— 
Matriculation,  $ 25 
Infirmary Fee, 
Dormitory Rent [two in a room],  15 
Tuition,  110 
Total of Fees,  $157 
Living Expenses— 
Fuel, Lights and Washing,  25 
Board at $12 a Month,  108 
Total necessary expenses (board at $12),  $290 
Payable on entrance,  $210 

The sum payable on entrance includes a contingent deposit of $10
which is credited in final settlement and hence forms no part of the
necessary expenses. This deposit is assessed for damage to property,
violation of Library rules and so on.

To the above total must be added the cost of books, stationery and
dissecting instruments, about $45 for the entire course, and the cost of
a degree, which if taken is $15. The books purchased will be of permanent
value to the student as part of his professional library.

The board at $12 is plain, but wholesome and abundant. Better
board can be had at $14, $16, $18 a month. At $18 the total necessary
expenses will be $344 of which $228 is payable on entrance.

For the entire course if taken in one year the necessary expenses including
books will be $335 to $389 according to the price paid for
board; if taken in two years they will be $625 to $733.
