APPROXIMATE SUMMARY OF NECESSARY EXPENSES.
The figures in the following tables may be taken as fairly accurate approximations
of all necessary expenses for a session of nine months. As
necessary expenses are reckoned here university and tuition fees, laboratory
fees, lodging, board, laundry, and books, but not clothing, traveling expenses,
or pocket money. For each department three estimates are given—
on the difference of expenditure for board, lodging, books, and laundry
—in other words, on the scale of living of the individual student. If a student
shares a room with another student, and practices the strictest economy,
he may possibly reduce his expenses below the low estimate.

Student Self-Help.—Every possible opportunity for obtaining remunerative
employment is afforded to students who are desirous of helping by this
means to pay their way through the University, and it may be safely stated
that any student with sufficient resources to carry him through the first half
of the session, can be reasonably sure of obtaining work which will pay a
considerable part of his living expenses and university charges for the remainder
of the academic year. While it is difficult for any student to be assured
of remunerative work before he reaches the University, information
as to such employment may be had from the secretary of the Committee
on Student Self-Help, Madison Hall.
For Loan Funds for deserving students, see page 129.
