EXPENSES.

The necessary expenses of a student in the Law Department, for the session
of nine months, are estimated as below for the lowest rate and for a more
liberal scale of living:

                       
Tuition,  $100  $100 
Matriculation,  30  30 
Infirmary, 
Contingent deposit,  10  10 
Dormitory rent,  15  30 
Servant's attendance, 
Furniture for dormitory,  19 
Fuel and lights,  12  24 
Washing,  14  14 
Board,  99  162 
Total,  $305  $405 
Payable on entrance,  $227  $281 

The contingent deposit of $10 is credited in final settlement. This deposit
is assessed for damage to property, violation of library rules, etc., by the
student.

To the above estimate must be added the cost of books and stationery,
about $80 for the entire course, and the cost of the diploma, if taken, $15.
The books are not fairly to be accounted amongst the expenses, since they
constitute a permanent investment, and will form the nucleus of a library
when the student becomes a practitioner.

The tuition fee of $100 covers the charges for the regular first or second
year's course, including any Junior class taken the first year, but not completed,
and brought over into the second year. It also covers any other combination
of three classes. For more than three classes the fee is $115; for two
classes, $75; for one class, $40.

Mr. James B. Green, B. L. (U. Va., 1871), acts as Licentiate Instructor in the Law
Department.
