ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS.

For admission to the University of Virginia the general conditions
are the following:

1. Sufficient Age.—The minimum legal age is sixteen years;
seventeen years or more are advised.

2. Good Character.—As attested by a certificate from the school
last attended or other valid proof.

3. Adequate Preparation.—As shown by the certificate of an accredited
school, or an equivalent examination.

For admission to the College the candidate must offer fourteen
units as specified below; of these three must be in English, two and
one half units in Mathematics, and one in History. Candidates for
the degree of Bachelor of Arts should offer in addition four units of
Latin. Candidates for the degree of Bachelor of Science should offer
in addition four units in two Modern Languages (French, German,
Spanish). The remaining three and one-half units may be selected
at will from the list given on page 77.

For admission to the Department of Engineering the candidate
must offer fourteen units as specified below; of these three must be
in English, three and one-half units in Mathematics, one in History,
and the residue selected at will. The candidate is advised to include
in his preparation high school courses in Physics, Chemistry,
and Physical Geography. Mechanical Drawing and Shop-Work are
also recommended.

For admission to the Department of Law the candidate must
offer fourteen units as specified below; of these three must be in English,
two and one-half units in Mathematics, one in History, and
the residue selected at will. The candidate must also be at least
eighteen years old.

For admission to the Department of Medicine the candidate must
fulfill the special requirements, set forth on page 216 of the section
of the catalogue devoted to that department.

The unit in the above estimates is the equivalent of the work
which would consume one-fourth of the time of a student in the
high school for one year. It should mean five periods of instruction
a week of at least forty minutes each during at least thirty-six
weeks.

SUBJECTS ACCEPTED FOR ADMISSION.

The Subjects accepted for Admission and their values in units
are given in tabulated form on the opposite page. Fuller Definitions
of the Units follow immediately after. The applicant for admission
may enter either by certificate or by examination.

For Admission by Certificate the candidate should file with the
dean of the university not later than September first a Certificate of
Preparation, made out on the blank form furnished by the university.
This certificate must come from some recognized institution of collegiate
rank or from an accredited high school, but admission by
certificate from accredited public high schools in Virginia shall be
extended only to graduates from four year high schools. It must
bear in all cases the signature of the head of the school, must specify
the character and content of each course offered for entrance
credit; must give the length of time devoted to the course and the
dates of the examinations; and must give the candidate's grades in
percentages. Each unit in the entrance requirements is the equivalent
of one full year of high school work, including five periods a
week of at least forty minutes each during not less than thirty-six
weeks. For schools in which the number of periods given to any
study, or the length of the period, is below the standard here specified,
the credit for such study will be reduced pro rata. In the
scientific subjects two hours of laboratory instruction will be counted
as the equivalent of one hour of recitation. High school courses in
Physics and Chemistry, otherwise adequate, will be allowed half
credit, when individual laboratory work is not done by the student
or is not attested by proper note books filed with the certificate.
Certificates of preparation from private tutors will in no case be
accepted; students thus prepared must in all cases take the entrance
examinations.

For Admission by Examination the candidate must present himself
for test at the University of Virginia in June or in September,
according to the dates given in the Programme of Entrance Examinations,
page 89. The examinations are held under the honor system,
no paper being accepted unless accompanied by the usual
pledge. All candidates who take their examinations at the times
appointed are tested free of charge. In case of delayed entrance,
where the grounds of postponement are good, the president of the
university may admit the candidate to a special examination, for
which an additional fee of five dollars is charged. The fee is payable
in advance and is in no case returned. Satisfactory certificates
as to character and age are in all cases required.

DEFINITIONS OF THE UNITS.

The following definitions of the units in the requirements for
entrance are designed on the one hand to guide the student in his
preparation for the entrance examinations, and on the other to govern
the high school principal and teachers in organizing the courses
of instruction.

English.

English A. English Grammar and Grammatical Analysis:—
The parts of speech with inflections and uses of each; syntax, especially
of nouns, verbs, and conjunctions; detailed study of sentence-structure,
including capitalization and punctuation. Textbook
recommended, Baskervill and Sewell's English Grammar.
Grammar and analysis might well be taught through two years of
the High School. (One unit.)

English B. Composition and Rhetoric:—The choice, arrangement
and connection of words with exercises on synonyms, antonyms,
and degrees and shades of meaning; fundamental qualities of
style, with selected and original examples; the sentence in detail as
to unity, coherence and proportion with ample exercises in constructing
sentences of varied types and emphasis; the paragraph with reference
to placing topic, structure for unity, continuity, and emphasis,
with abundant exercises in composing good paragraphs; much practice
in planning and writing simple compositions on familiar subjects
under the heads of narration, description, exposition and argumentation:
Text-book recommended, Brooks and Hubbard's Composition-Rhetoric.
Practice in composition should continue through the entire
High School course, though formal rhetoric may be studied but
one year. (One unit.)

English C. Critical Study of Selected Specimens of Literature:
—The specimens for reading and study designated for college
entrance requirements by the joint committee of colleges and secondary
schools. These required books or their equivalents should
be studied throughout the High School course under the guidance
of the instructor. Parallel reading should be encouraged and intelligent
conversation about books directed. (One unit.)

The college entrance requirements in English for 1913-1919
inclusive are:

A. Reading.

The aim of this course is to foster in the student the habit of
intelligent reading and to develop a taste for good literature, by
giving him a first-hand knowledge of some of its best specimens.

He should read the books carefully, but his attention should not
be so fixed upon details that he fails to appreciate the main purpose
and charm of what he reads.

With a view to large freedom of choice, the books provided for
reading are arranged in the following groups, from each of which
at least two selections are to be made, except as otherwise provided
under Group 1.

Latin.

The Latin units are construed in accordance with the following
Report of the Commission on College-Entrance Requirements in
Latin:

I. Amount and Range of the Reading Required.

1. The Latin reading required of candidates for admission to
college, without regard to the prescription of particular authors and
works, shall be not less in amount than Cæsar, Gallic War, I-IV;
Cicero, the orations against Catiline, for the Manilian Law, and for
Archias; Vergil, Aeneid, I-VI.

2. The amount of reading specified above shall be selected by
the schools from the following authors and works: Cæsar (Gallic
War and the Civil War) and Nepos (Lives); Cicero (orations, letters,
and De Senectute) and Sallust (Catiline and Jugurthine War);
Vergil (Bucolics, Georgics, and Aeneid) and Ovid (Metamorphoses,
Fasti, and Tristia).

II. Subjects and Scope of the Examinations.

1. Translation at Sight. Candidates will be examined in translation
at sight of both prose and verse. The vocabulary, constructions,

and range of ideas of the passages set will be suited to the
preparation secured by the reading indicated above.

2. Prescribed Reading. Candidates will be examined also upon
the following prescribed reading: Cicero, orations for the Manilian
Law and for Archias, and Vergil, Aeneid, I, II, and either IV or
VI at the option of the candidate, with questions on subject-matter,
literary and historical allusions, and prosody. Every paper in which
passages from the prescribed reading are set for translation will
contain also one or more passages for translation at sight; and candidates
must deal satisfactorily with both these parts of the paper, or
they will not be given credit for either part.

3. Grammar and Composition. The examinations in grammar and
composition will demand thorough knowledge of all regular inflections,
all common irregular forms, and the ordinary syntax and
vocabulary of the prose authors read in school, with ability to use
this knowledge in writing simple Latin prose. The words, constructions,
and range of ideas called for in the examinations in composition
will be such as are common in the reading of the year, or
years, covered by the particular examination.

Note. The examinations in grammar and composition may be either in separate
papers or combined with other parts of the Latin examination, at the option of each
individual institution; and nothing in any of the above definitions of the requirements
shall be taken to prevent any college from asking questions on the grammar, prosody,
or subject-matter of any of the passages set for translation, if it so desires.

Suggestions Concerning Preparation.

Exercises in translation at sight should begin in school with
the first lessons in which Latin sentences of any length occur, and
should continue throughout the course with sufficient frequency to
insure correct methods of work on the part of the student. From
the outset particular attention should be given to developing the
ability to take in the meaning of each word—and so, gradually, of
the whole sentence—just as it stands; the sentence should be read
and understood in the order of the original, with full appreciation
of the force of each word as it comes, so far as this can be known
or inferred from that which has preceded and from the form and
the position of the word itself. The habit of reading in this way
should be encouraged and cultivated as the best preparation for all
the translating that the student has to do. No translation, however,
should be a mechanical metaphrase. Nor should it be a mere
loose paraphrase. The full meaning of the passage to be translated,
gathered in the way described above, should finally be expressed
in clear and natural English.

A written examination cannot test the ear or tongue, but proper
instruction in any language will necessarily include the training of
both. The school work in Latin, therefore, should include much
reading aloud, writing from dictation, and translation from the teacher's
reading. Learning suitable passages by heart is also very useful,
and should be more practiced.

The work in composition should give the student a better understanding
of the Latin he is reading at the time, if it is prose, and
greater facility in reading. It is desirable, however, that there should
be systematic and regular work in composition during the time in
which poetry is read as well; for this work the prose authors already
studied should be used as models.

In accordance with the above report, the following detailed description
of the four units of Latin is given:

Latin A. Grammar, Composition, and Translation:—The Roman
pronunciation; habitual observance of accent and quantity; thorough
mastery of the regular forms; the simple rules of word-formation
and derivation; syntax of the cases, tenses, and modes; accusative
and infinitive, relative and conditional sentences, indirect discourse,
and the subjunctive. Translation into Latin of easy detached sentences
illustrating grammatical principles, and of very easy continuous
prose based upon the vocabulary of Cæsar and Cicero. (One
unit.)

Latin B. Grammar, Composition, and Cæsar's Gallic War,
Books I-IV:—A reasonable acquaintance with the time and purpose
of the author; intelligent grasp of the thought; ability to summarize
the narrative as a whole; ready comprehension of the normal forms
and constructions; a reasonable facility in reading at sight passages
of like vocabulary and construction. As much as one book of Cæsar
may be substituted by an equivalent amount of Viri Romae, or other
Latin prose. In connection with all of the reading there must be
constant practice in prose composition, as well as in sight translation.
(One unit.)

Latin C. Grammar, Composition, Cicero's Orations against Catiline,
and Two Others:—A reasonable acquaintance with the time
and circumstances of the Catilinarian conspiracy; intelligent appreciation
of the orator's thought and purpose; ability to summarize
the oration as a whole; readiness in explaining normal forms and
constructions; reasonable facility in reading at sight passages of like
vocabulary and structure. As much as two orations may be substituted
by an equivalent amount of Nepos, or other Latin prose. In
connection with all of the reading there must be constant practice
in prose composition, as well as in sight translation. (One unit.)

Latin D. Grammar, Composition, and Vergil's Aeneid, Books
I-VI:—A reasonable acquaintance with the time and purpose of the
poet; intelligent appreciation of the poet's thought and art; ability
to summarize the story as a whole; acquaintance with the typical
forms and constructions of poetry; practical mastery of the heroic
hexameter; reasonable facility in reading at sight passages of like
vocabulary and difficulty. The third and fifth book of the Aeneid
may be substituted by an equivalent amount of Ovid, or other Latin
epic poetry. In connection with all reading there should be constant
practice in prose composition, as well as in sight translation.
(One unit.)

Greek.

Greek A. Elementary Grammar, Composition, and Translation:
—The examination will test the proficiency of students who have covered

one of the standard beginners' books. It will consist of questions

—The examination will be such as to test the candidate's training
in an elementary course of one session of at least thirty-six weeks,
with five recitation periods a week of at least forty minutes each.
This first year's work should comprise careful drill in pronunciation,
dictation and the rudiments of grammar; abundant easy exercises in
composition both oral and written; and the reading of about 100 pages
of elementary graduated texts. (One unit.)

German B. Intermediate Grammar, Composition, and Translation:—The
examination will cover the second year's work, based on a
one-year elementary course as stated above. Length of session, the
number and length of periods should be as above stated. 300 pages

in grammar, constant practice in dictation and conversation, daily
oral exercise in rendering English into German and weekly exercises
in German composition. (One unit).

French A. Elementary Grammar, Composition, and Translation:
—The examination will be such as to test the candidate's training in
an elementary course of one session of at least thirty-six weeks, with
five recitation periods a week of at least forty minutes each. During
the first year the work should comprise careful drill in pronunciation,
dictation, and the rudiments of grammar; abundant easy exercises
in composition, both oral and written; and the translation of
150 pages of elementary graduated texts. (One unit.)

French B. Intermediate Grammar, Composition, and Translation:
—The examination will cover the second year's work, based on a
one-year elementary course as stated above. Length of session, the
number and length of periods should be as above stated. During
the second year 450 additional pages of Modern French prose and
poetry should be covered, with continued drill in the grammar, constant
practice in dictation and in conversation, daily oral exercises in

of Modern Spanish prose and poetry should be covered with continued
drill in the grammar, constant practice in dictation and in
conversation, daily oral exercises in rendering English into Spanish,
and periodical written exercises in Spanish Composition. (One unit.)

Science.

Science A. Physical Geography:—The entrance requirements in
Physical Geography include such elementary knowledge of the following
topics, as would be obtained from the study of a text-book
like Maury's "Physical Geography" or Tarr's "Elementary Physical
Geography." The earth as a planet; planetary movements; magnetism
of the earth; internal heat of the earth; volcanoes; earthquakes;
arrangement of land masses; forms of land; relief forms of the continents;
islands; properties of water; waters of the land; drainage;
continental drainage; the sea; the oceans; waves and tides; currents
of the sea; physical properties of the atmosphere; climate; winds
and circulation of the air; storms; moisture of the air; hail; snow and
glaciers; electrical and optical phenomena of the atmosphere; relations
between plants and animals; range of plants and animals;
man, including range of human habitation, division into races, conditions
favorable to civilization, and man's influence on physical
geography; influence of physical geography on the industries of
countries. (One unit.)

Science B. Inorganic Chemistry:—The candidate for entrance
credit in Chemistry should have studied, under a competent teacher,
such a course in the elements of inorganic chemistry as can be covered
in three meetings a week during a nine-months' school year, and
in addition thereto should have worked in the laboratory about one
hundred hours, or enough time to perform intelligently the usual experiments
given in a High School laboratory course. The ground
covered by Remsen's "Introduction to the Study of Chemistry" is the
accepted standard. The student's autograph laboratory notes must
be submitted with the examination paper or entrance certificate.
(One unit.)

Science C. Experimental Physics:—A course of one full year,
covering the topics of Mechanics, Sound, Light, Heat, Electricity,
and Magnetism. The work should include (a) lecture-table demonstrations

by the teacher, with appropriate yet simple apparatus; (b)
text-book work, in which the pupil solves numerical problems; and
(c) laboratory exercises by the pupil—all three embodying fundamental
principles of the subject. In the laboratory work at least
thirty exercises should be performed; the following distribution is
advised: In Mechanics, 14; in Sound, 1; in Light, 5; in Heat, 3; in
Electricity and Magnetism, 7. The pupil's note-book of written reports
on these experiments should be submitted with indication of
acceptance on the part of the teacher. Any one of the standard texts
and laboratory manuals may be followed. (One unit.)

Science D. Botany and Zoölogy:—The entrance examinations in
these two subjects, which together count as a single unit, presuppose
such sound elementary knowledge of the structure and functions of
plants and animals, respectively, and of their classifications, as may
reasonably be regarded as representing a half year's work, in each
case, upon plants or animals with the aid of such a text-book on the
one hand, as Coulter's "Plant Structure," and on the other by Jordan
and Kellogg's "Animal Forms;" or other books of similar grade
and character. (One unit.)

In each case the candidate will be required to submit (with his

CONDITIONED STUDENTS.

A candidate may be admitted in spite of some deficiencies, provided
these are not such as will impair the integrity of his academic
work. But no such candidate will be conditioned except upon subjects
actually taught in this university, nor will any candidate be
conditioned on more than two units; and all conditions must be absolved
before the beginning of the next session after initial registration.
The courses taken for the removal of conditions of admission
can in no case be counted as part of the work credited for any
degree.

SPECIAL STUDENTS.

Applicants for registration who are more than twenty (20) years
old, reckoning from the birthday preceding matriculation, and desire
to enter for the pursuit of special elective courses, must present
adequate proofs of good character and of the needful maturity and
training. Such applicants may then be registered by the dean of
the university as Special Students, and will be admitted without
formal examination to the privileges of the university, but not as
candidates for any titled degree. Such students must in all cases meet
the specific entrance requirements as prescribed for the courses
elected by them.

Special students and conditioned students are advised and encouraged
to make up their deficiencies by private study or by work
in the Summer School. They will then be registered as regular
students. But it is expressly ordered that no special student shall be

recognized as a candidate for any degree from the University of
Virginia, unless he shall have completed all the entrance requirements
at least one academic year before the date of his graduation.

For Admission to the College with Advanced Standing from an
accredited school, and for admission to any of the departments of
the University with college or university credit for courses passed
at another college or university, see the special regulations governing
such admission on the following pages:

• The College, p. 180.

• The Department of Graduate Studies, p. 190.

• The Department of Law, p. 198.

• The Department of Medicine, p. 58.

• The Department of Engineering, p. 216.

CONDITIONS FOR THE ACCREDITING OF SCHOOLS.

A school desiring to be placed on the accredited list of
the university should apply to the Chairman of the Committee
on Accredited Schools. In response to the application, a blank
form inquiring into the course of study, faculty, etc., of the
school will be sent to the principal. Upon the return of this blank,
properly filled out, a representative of the university will be sent to
inspect the school. If his report is favorable and the Committee
concurs, the school will be accepted and the principal duly notified.
The name of the school will be entered upon the list of accredited
schools and published in the catalogue of the university.

No school will be placed upon the list in which the course of
study covers less than four years of high school work based upon
at least seven years of competent elementary instruction.

Each school must offer at least sixteen units of high school
instruction as defined in the entrance requirements of the University
of Virginia in the current number of the catalogue (pp. 75-88).
A unit consists of thirty-six weeks of instruction in one subject, in
which there are five recitations of forty minutes each per week or
the equivalent of one-fourth of a year's work. These sixteen units
must include English A, B, and C, Mathematics A, B, C, and one
unit of History, as outlined in the entrance requirements. Those
schools which wish to prepare students for the study of Latin in
the university must offer four units of Latin.

The university will not consider any high school in which the
teaching force consists of less than three teachers devoting their
entire time to high school instruction. All high school teachers
should possess college training and preference will be given to those
schools in which the teachers are college graduates.

The number of daily recitation periods given by one teacher
should not exceed seven. The university advises six. The number
of daily recitation periods of one student should not exceed four.

The quality of the instruction, the general intellectual and moral
tone of the school, the efficiency of the equipment and the character
of the text-books used are paramount factors, and a representative
of the university must report satisfactorily upon these points before
a school shall be accredited.

The laboratory and library facilities should be adequate to the
needs of the instruction in the subjects for which credit is asked.

Each accredited school is required to report to the Committee
on Accredited Schools when requested to do so. Any failure so to
report will be considered cause for removal from the list.

The principal is required to forward to the dean of the university
upon a blank to be supplied upon request, a list of subjects in
which each student entering the university from said school is
properly prepared.

The university reserves the right to cease to accredit at any time
any school that employs inefficient teachers or fails to maintain the
standard mentioned herein.

High schools which do not fulfill all the requirements for a
fully accredited school, but which offer four years of work and complete
at least twelve units, may be partially accredited, upon those
subjects which have been approved by the committee. Graduates of
such schools will be credited with the twelve approved units and will
be required to stand examinations upon the other units.

LIST OF ACCREDITED SCHOOLS IN VIRGINIA.

The following is a list of the schools within the State of Virginia
at present accredited by the university. This list is revised
annually by the Faculty Committee on Accredited Schools. Schools
already on the list will be retained and new schools added provided
they give evidence upon examination of meeting the entrance requirements
stated above.

CERTIFICATES OF SCHOOLS OUTSIDE OF VIRGINIA.

Certificates from schools outside the State of Virginia which
are accredited by their own state universities, or other institutions
of similar rank, may be accepted by the dean, provided the courses
of instruction in such schools meet the requirements indicated in the
foregoing pages.

ANNOUNCEMENTS.

Charlottesville, the seat of the University of Virginia, is a city
of about 8,000 inhabitants in a picturesque and healthful situation
among the foot-hills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. It is at the
junction of two great lines of railway, the Chesapeake and Ohio
and the Southern, and is thus of easy access from every part of
the country.

The Sanitary arrangements of the university are excellent. The
climate is invigorating, healthful, and free from malarial conditions;
the water supply is pure, being drawn by gravity from a mountain
reservoir six miles away; the system of drains and sewers is complete;
there are two athletic fields; the Fayerweather Gymnasium
affords ample facilities for bathing and exercise; and in all ordinary
cases of illness students receive treatment from the university physician,
with skillful nursing, when necessary, in a well-equipped
hospital.

Faculty, Endowment, and Equipment.—The professorial faculty
numbers fifty-one; the libraries contain more than 75,000 volumes.
The university owns equipment, buildings, and grounds of an estimated
value of $2,101,953; holds productive funds to amount of
$2,061,727, and receives an annual appropriation from State of Virginia
of $80,000. The annual expenditures for the session of 1912-1913
were $261,006.78. In scientific studies large facilities are offered by
the Leander McCormick Observatory, the Rouss Physical Laboratory,
the Chemical Laboratory and the Museum of Industrial Chemistry,
the Lewis Brooks Museum, the Biological Laboratory, the
Anatomical Laboratory, the Pathological Laboratory, Physiological
Laboratory and the Hospital, and Dispensary. The Engineering
Department possesses a well-equipped Mechanical Laboratory
and Machine Shop.

The Courses of Instruction are comprised in six departments,
two of which are academic, and four professional. The former include
the College and the Department of Graduate Studies: the
latter the Departments of Law, Medicine, Engineering, and Agriculture.[1] In the various departments there are altogether forty distinct
schools, each affording an independent course, under the direction

of professors who are responsible for the systems and methods
pursued.

Elective System.—The system of independent schools assumes
that opportunities for study and instruction are privileges to be
sought voluntarily and eagerly. Students are therefore allowed to
elect for themselves the courses of study to which they are led by
their individual tastes and proposed pursuits in life, as far as the
time appointed for lectures and examinations permits. Nor is it
alone to those who wish to make special attainments in single
departments of knowledge that this freedom of election commends
itself. It has decided advantages also for most of those students
who seek the common goal of liberal education by ways which
varying aptitude, varying preparation, or varying opportunities render
of necessity different. The wisdom of the founder in establishing
such a system has been amply vindicated in the history of this university;
and in recent years many schools of higher education
throughout the country have adopted methods involving this principle.

The Session begins on the Thursday preceding the seventeenth
of September, and continues, with a recess of ten days at Christmas,
until the Wednesday before the nineteenth of June. The first
three days of the session are given to registration, and all students,
both old and new, are required during that time to place their names
upon the books of the university and the rolls of their respective
classes. Lecture courses begin upon the following Monday, and
absences will be recorded against any student not present, from
the opening lecture of each course. Students entering after the first
three days will be charged a fee for registration.

Religious Worship.—Morality and religion are recognized as
the foundation and indispensable concomitants of education. The
discipline of the university is sedulously administered with a view to
confirm integrity, and to maintain a sacred regard for truth. Great
efforts are made to surround the students with religious influences;
but experience having proved that it is best to forbear the employment
of coercion, the attendance on religious exercises is entirely
voluntary. Divine service is conducted twice on Sunday in the
University Chapel by clergymen invited from the principal religious
denominations; and other religious exercises are directed by the
Young Men's Christian Association.

The Examinations in each class at this institution have, from
the beginning (A. D. 1825), been held in writing. Oral examinations
are held in some departments, but they are auxiliary to the written
examinations, which, in conjunction with the class standing as determined
by the daily work of the student, are the main tests of the

student's proficiency. A special examination may be granted upon
physician's certificate of sickness on the day of examination, or
other cause which the faculty of the department in question may accept
as adequate ground. See also p. 101.

The written examinations are, in every case, of a public character,
and are conducted by a committee of three professors, one of
whom is the professor whose class is examined. This committee is
expected to remain in the room during the examination, supervise
the proceedings, determine doubts, grant special examinations in
cases covered by law, and make report to the faculty of the results
of the examination. The committee, not the professor solely is responsible
throughout.

Reports.—Reports are sent, at stated intervals, to the parent or
guardian of each student. These reports give the number of times
the student has been absent from lectures; and indicate, as nearly as
is practicable, the nature of the progress made by him in his work
at the university.

Honor System.—For eighteen years after the opening of the institution,
honesty at the written examinations was sought to be secured
by the strict surveillance of the committee alone. This was
often found to be ineffectual. In June, 1842, Judge Henry St.
George Tucker, Professor of Law, offered the following resolution,
which the faculty at once adopted:

This was the beginning of the honor system at this institution.
In subsequent years the pledge was extended so as to preclude the
giving as well as the receiving of assistance. The system has been
in operation since 1842 without interruption. Its wisdom and its
beneficial results have been abundantly demonstrated. Its administration
imposes no burden upon the faculty. Experience shows
that the students themselves are its sternest guardians and executors.
Violation of examination pledges has been of rare occurrence.
In every case the culprit has been quietly but promptly eliminated
without need of faculty action.

The spirit of truth and honor, thus fostered in the examination-room,
has gradually pervaded the entire life of the institution, and
all the relations between the student and professor.

It is not believed to be essential to the honor system, nor indeed
to be right, to expose the examinee to unnecessary temptation
to violate his pledge. The student is regarded as one to be
shielded from such influences and to have his honorable tendencies
carefully reinforced and not wrecked. Hence the examination is
held in one place where all candidates are assembled, and in the
presence of a committee of the faculty. Conversation among the
candidates and absence from the room are discouraged. They are
cautioned to avoid even the appearance of evil. These safeguards
have been found to be in entire harmony with the absence of espionage.
The fact that the candidate is not suspected, has been found
to lead always to the avoidance of conduct which would give rise to
suspicion.

Degrees are conferred only upon examination after residence.
The requirements for these degrees are given under the several
departments.

Licentiates.—Any person of unexceptionable character and habits,
upon producing to the faculty satisfactory evidence of suitable
capacity, and attainments, may be licensed by the faculty to form
classes for private instruction in any school of the university, in
aid of and in conformity to the public teachings of the professor
upon any subject taught therein. The employment and compensation
of any such licentiate are matters of private agreement between
him and the student. Students whose preparation is defective for
the work of the university classes may often economize time and
energy by securing the services of a licentiate at the same time that
they are attending the regular course of lectures.

Directions for New Students.—New students will find it greatly
to their advantage if, as soon as possible after reporting to the
dean of the university, they will go to Madison Hall, where a committee
of students will be found who will gladly be of any service
in assisting them to get settled as quickly as possible. A general
information bureau, a complete list of boarding houses with prices
of board, a directory of the students with their addresses, a list
of all forms of employment open to students, copies of the University
Handbook, and other things of interest to the new men, will
there be accessible to all. The General Secretary of the Association
will be pleased to correspond with prospective students during the
summer with regard to all such matters, and it is suggested that
every man who expects to enter the university inform him of that
fact. See p. 306.

REGULATIONS.

REGISTRATION.

Registration of New Students.—Applicants seeking admission to
the university for the first time must 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
return shall be recorded as unexcused absences; shall be so
reported 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.

RESIDENCE, ATTENDANCE AND GRADE.

The Academic Year extends from the morning of the Thursday
preceding the seventeenth of September to the evening of the Wednesday
before the nineteenth of June. Thanksgiving Day is a holiday,
and there is a Christmas recess beginning on the morning of
the twenty-fourth of December and closing on the evening of the
second of January.

Attendance is required of each student throughout the entire session,
with the exception of the days above indicated, unless he has
received permission to be temporarily absent, or to withdraw before
its close. Leave of absence is granted by the deans for sufficient reasons,
and must in every case be obtained in advance. Voluntary
withdrawal requires the written consent of the student's professors
and of the dean of the university. While in residence each student
is required to attend regularly all lectures and other prescribed exercises
and all examinations in the courses which he pursues (unless
excused for cause) and in every way to conform to the regulations
of the university.

Absence from the university is permitted upon the written leave
of the dean of the department in which the student is registered, obtained
in every case in advance. But leaves of absence for the purpose
of accompanying the athletic teams or musical clubs on excursions
will not be granted, except to the officers and members of the
organizations.

Absence of Athletic Teams and Other Student Organizations.—
The laws relating to absence from the university of members of the

Athletic teams are found in the section upon Physical Training (pp.
310-311). The same resolutions apply, mutatis mutandis, to members
of other student organizations.

Absence from Lectures may be excused by the professors, but
only for sickness or like providential cause. Such excuses must be
rendered on the day of the first lecture attended after the absence.
Unexcused absences from lectures render the student liable to be
disciplined by the faculty. In case of delayed entrance the student
is regarded as having been absent from all lectures or other exercises
that have been given, in the courses which he enters, since the beginning
of the session.

Absence from Examinations will not be excused except for sickness
on the day of examination (attested by a physician's certificate)
or other cause which the faculty of the department by special order
may approve. An unexcused absence, or the presentation of an unpledged
paper, is counted as a total failure in the examination in which
it occurs. A student whose absence from examination is excused
is admitted to the Fall Examination in the subject in question in each
of the departments where such examinations are held. Where necessary,
he is admitted to a special examination.

Change of Schools, with transfer of fees, can not be made except
by special order of the faculty. But a student may change from
one class to another of the same school with the advice and consent
of the professors concerned.

The Grade of the Student in any course, either for a term or for
the session, is determined by the combined class standing and the
result of examination, each being considered in such proportion as
the professor in charge may decide for the course in question.

Class Standing in any course is determined by the regularity of
attendance of the student upon the lectures (and laboratory or other
similar exercises where included) in the course in question, and by
the faithful performance of his work as indicated by his answers when
questioned, by his written exercises, notebooks, the faithful performance
of laboratory (or other similar) work, etc. Students are regarded
by the faculty as under the law of honor in matters affecting
class standing as in examinations.

The Grades for Passing in any course, required by the various
departments of the university, are as follows:

     

in the College, the Department of Graduate Studies, the Department of Engineering, and the Department of Agriculture	75 per centum
in the Department of Medicine	80 per centum
in the Department of Law	83 per centum

Re-Examination in September.—A student of the College, of the
Department of Graduate Studies, or of the Department of Engineering,
who attains in any course a grade for the session below 75 per
cent, but not below 65 per cent, may, upon written recommendation
of the professor in charge of the course, be admitted by the faculty
of the department at their final meeting in June to re-examination
upon that course during the registration week or the following September.
The fee for each re-examination is $5.00, and must be paid
to the bursar on or before July fifteenth preceding the opening of the
session.

Minimum Grade Required of College and Engineering Students.—
Any student in the College or in the Department of Engineering
whose average grade on all courses for any term is less than 40 per
cent will be dropped from the rolls of the university. Any student
who makes an average of 40 per cent or more, at the end of any term,
but whose grade on each of his courses is less than 65 per cent will
be put on probation for the term next ensuing. The student on probation
who again makes less than 65 per cent on each of his courses
at the end of the current term, will be dropped from the rolls.

A student in any department of the university who is evidently
making no real progress in one of his courses of study may at any
time, after due admonition, be required to drop the course in question.
A student in the College or the Department of Engineering
who falls under this rule will be put upon probation if he fails to
attain a grade of 40 per cent in a single one of his remaining courses
at a succeeding examination.

Voluntary Withdrawal from the university requires the written
consent of the student's professors and of the dean of the university.
When a permit is granted upon the university physician's certificate
that withdrawal is necessary on account of the student's ill-health,
which must not be due to dissolute conduct, the fees are returned
pro rata. Under no other circumstances will there be a
return of fees.

Enforced Withdrawal is inflicted by the faculty for habitual delinquency
in class, habitual idleness, or any other fault which prevents
the student from fulfilling the purposes for which he should
have come to the university. See also "Minimum Grade" above.

CONDUCT.

Conduct.—The laws of the university require from every student
decorous, sober, and upright conduct as long as he remains a member
of the university, whether he be within the precincts or not.
They require from the student regular and diligent application to his
studies, and if, in the opinion of the faculty, any student be not fulfilling

the purposes for which he ought to have come to the university,
and be not likely to fulfill them, either from habitual delinquency
in any of his classes, or from habitual idleness, or from any other
bad habit, the president, upon recommendation of the faculty, may
require him to withdraw from the university, after informing him of
the objections to his conduct and affording him an opportunity of explanation
and defense.

Drunkenness, gambling, and dissoluteness are strictly forbidden,
and the president may dismiss from the university for the residue
of the current session every student found guilty of them, or may administer
such other discipline as seems best under the circumstances.

The keeping of Dogs by students within the university grounds
is forbidden.

In all cases of Discipline, the law requires that the student must
first be informed of the objections to his conduct and afforded an opportunity
of explanation and defense.

Prohibition of Credit.—An act of the Legislature prohibits merchants
and others, under severe penalties, from crediting minor students.
The license to contract debts, which the president is authorized
to grant, is limited (except when the parent or guardian requests
otherwise in writing) to cases of urgent necessity.

DORMITORY, BOARD, MEDICAL ATTENDANCE.

Dormitory.—Students may reside in the university dormitories,
in private houses approved by the president, or in their homes.
Any change of residence during the session should be reported at the
office of the registrar.

Students desiring rooms in the university dormitories should
make application to the Bursar, enclosing in every case the reservation
fee of five dollars, which will be returned should there be no
vacant room to let.

The occupant of a dormitory has the first right to it, and may
reserve it for the next session, by contract with the Bursar, and depositing
$5.00 (which is in no case returnable), not later than May
first. The balance of the rent shall be paid not later than the first
registration day of the session, otherwise such preference or other
right shall be forfeited. No dormitory may be sublet; nor shall the
same be used for improper purposes. For rental of university dormitories,
see p. 110.

Boarding.—Students may board and lodge either in the university
precincts or at their homes, or in houses licensed by the faculty. It
is the duty of the president to withdraw the license from any house

in which the regulations as to the conduct of students are not observed.
Change of lodging should be reported at the registrar's office.

Medical Attendance.—Any student who is temporarily ill from
causes not due to his own misconduct is entitled, without charge,
to all necessary medical advice from the university physician; and,
if necessary, to skillful nursing in the University Hospital at a reasonable
charge for his maintenance while there. This exemption
from charge does not apply to cases requiring surgical operation,
chronic cases, or to constitutional disorders of long standing from
which the student in question was suffering at the time of his coming
to the university. Students who take the responsibility of
boarding at houses not approved by the Board of Health forfeit
the right to this exemption. Students residing at their own homes,
who waive this right, are entitled to the remission of a portion of
the university fee. Any student sent to the University Hospital
by the advice and under the care of a physician other than the
university physician will be required to pay the regular hospital
charges for private patients.

Physical Training.—No student is permitted to undertake an
amount of work greater than he may reasonably be expected to do
well without detriment to his physical health; and every student is
advised to take a due amount of daily outdoor exercise, for which
ample opportunities are afforded upon the athletic fields, the tennis
courts, the golf course, and in other forms; and in addition, to
make systematic use of the facilities afforded without cost for definite
and judicious physical training at the Fayerweather Gymnasium
under the advice and instruction of the director and his assistants.
Further information upon this important subject will be found upon
a subsequent page.

EXPENSES.

All tuition fees, university fees, the contingent deposit, rents of
rooms in the university buildings, and charges for service in the
same, are payable upon entrance. Under special conditions the
president is authorized to allow credit; but these deferred payments
are in all cases to be properly secured.

Students permitted to register during a term are required to
pay the full fees for the term in which they register.

Under no circumstances will there be a return of fees except
upon certificate from the university physician that withdrawal from
the university is necessary on account of the student's illness, which
must not be due to dissolute conduct. Upon receipt of the university
physician's certificate, the president will return the fees, pro rata.

A student's necessary expenses are as follows:

I. University charges, which are the same for all students,
except College and Graduate students from Virginia, as stated in
a following paragraph;

II. Department fees, which depend upon the course of study
pursued;

III. Cost of living, board, etc.

I. University Charges.—Under the first head are included (a)
university fee, $40 ($10 for Virginians in Academic Departments),
and (b) the contingent deposit, $10; as well as (c) the special Entrance
Examination fee of five dollars, (d) the delinquent registration
fee of three dollars, and (e) a fee for re-examination in any
subject where any of these is incurred.

(a) The University fee goes to the fund intended to defray the
general expenses of the university. Payment of this fee entitles
the student, without additional charge, to the use of the Library;
to the privileges of the Gymnasium, with baths, private lockers,
etc., and the advice and aid of the Instructor in Physical Culture;
and to free medical attendance by the university physician in cases
of illness. It also covers all regular examination and diploma fees.

(b) The contingent deposit is liable for any damage to the
university property for which the student is responsible, or for
violations of Library or other university rules. It is returned at the
end of the session, less any charges that may have been made
against it; it is therefore, not necessarily an expense, although
mentioned in this connection.

From this deposit there will be deducted the sum of $2.00 for
the support of the Chapel Services and General Religious Work of
the University, unless within one month after registration the
student shall request the bursar not to deduct this contribution. It
will be observed that this amount also (which is less than the average
contribution made by the students who have given toward the
Chapel Fund in past years) is not a necessary expense, as the support
of the religious work of the university is left entirely to the
option of the students and professors. This method of collection
is intended merely as a substitute for the canvass formerly made,
and it is the desire of the faculty that the students will thus unite
with them in sustaining the religious work of the university.

(c) The special entrance examination fee of five dollars is
required of all applicants for admission to the university by examination
who for good reason are unable to be present at the regular
entrance examinations on the dates as set forth on p. 89 of the catalogue.
All candidates who take entrance examinations on the
regular dates, are examined free of charge.

(d) The delinquent registration fee of three dollars is charged
where the student or candidate, through carelessness or other inadequate
reason, fails to present himself for registration, during the
first three days of the session; or where the student fails to register
with the dean of his department, between the hours of 9 a. m. and
2 p. m. on the first week-day after the expiration of the Christmas
Recess, unless his late return be due to illness or like providential
cause.

(e) The re-examination fee: A student of the College who
attains in any course a grade below 75 per cent, but not below 65
per cent, may, upon the written recommendation of the professor
in charge, be admitted by the faculty at their final meeting in June,
to re-examination upon that course, during the registration week
of the following September. The fee for each re-examination shall
be $5.00, payable to the bursar on or before July 15.

II. Department Fees.—Under the second head is comprised the
charge for instruction, including the Tuition Fees proper, and in
some cases, the cost of apparatus and materials consumed in laboratory
work.

TABULATED STATEMENTS OF UNIVERSITY AND DEPARTMENTAL FEES.

A. The College:

         

	To Students from Virginia	To Students from Other States
University Fee	$10	$40
Tuition	0	95
Contingent Deposit	10	10
	$20	$145

Laboratory Fees.—In addition to the charges above stated, students
taking courses in natural sciences pay laboratory fees as follows:

           

	Laboratory	Fee for Apparatus, etc.
Botany	$ 5	$5
Chemistry	10	$5[2]
Geology, Term Course	3
Physics	5
Zoölogy	5

Students Taking Less than Fifteen Session-Hours.—Students,
from other states than Virginia, who by special permission of the
faculty, take courses aggregating less than fifteen session-hours in
the College in any one session, must pay for tuition in one academic
school $50, in two schools $60, in three schools $75, in four
schools $95. (See also p. 109.)

B. The Department of Graduate Studies:

         

	To Students from Virginia		To Students from Other States
University Fee	$10		$40
Tuition	0	Average	75[3]
Contingent Deposit	10		10
	$20		$125

Students from Virginia.—As is seen from the statements above
the university, in compliance with the statute (Virginia Code 1887,
Ch. 68, Sec. 1554), offers to white male students from Virginia who
are sixteen years or more of age, instruction, without charge for
tuition, in all the Schools of the Academic Departments (excepting
the courses in Analytical Chemistry and the laboratory courses in
Botany, Chemistry, Physics, and Zoölogy), subject to the conditions

stated below. Such students are required to pay the university
fee for Virginia students in the Academic Department of $10, and
make the usual contingent deposit. They are also required to pay
the regular laboratory charges for materials, etc., in the course of
study where such charges occur. If they occupy rooms on the
university grounds they are of course subject to the usual charges
for rent and service. The saving to Virginia students varies from
$105 to $130, according to the number of schools elected.

To be entitled to free tuition as a Virginia student under the
above mentioned statute, it is necessary that the applicant's parents
be domiciled in the State if he be under twenty-one years of age; if
he has attained his majority, it is necessary that he himself be domiciled
here. One is domiciled in the State who is living in it at the
time the application is made and has no present intention of removing
therefrom in the future, or who, though absent from the State,
has not lost his former domicile by acquiring one elsewhere. No
other person can honestly avail himself of this privilege.

White Male Teachers and Superintendents of the Public Schools
of Virginia will be admitted, during the last three months of the session,
to the Schools of the Academic Departments of the university
without payment of fees, upon presentation of certificates that they
have been teachers in the Public Schools of the State during the
year.

Immediately after the Spring Examinations any of the following
courses may be entered upon with profit by an applicant prepared
for them; Latin, Greek, French, Spanish, German, English, English
Literature and Rhetoric, History, Moral Philosophy, Mathematics,
Astronomy, Natural Philosophy, Chemistry, Industrial Chemistry,
Geology, and Descriptive Botany. Special courses for teachers will
be offered in English and Mathematics, and perhaps in several other
subjects during the approaching spring term, if the demand for them
is sufficient.

Applicants for admission as teachers are required to send in
their names to the president of the university not later than March
5. Lodgings can be had near the university. The only necessary
expense will be for board, lights, and washing, which will together
cost from $5 to $7 a week.

Ministerial Students.—Ministers of the gospel may attend any of
the Academic Schools of the university without the payment of tuition
fees. The same privileges will be extended to any young man
who submits testimonials that he is an approved candidate for the
ministry, and unable to meet the expenses of education at the university
without aid.

C. Courses in Analytical Chemistry:

The courses in Analytical Chemistry, being professional courses,
are not included under the regular tuition fees in the academic departments
or among the courses in which free tuition is given to
Virginians and other privileged students in the College and the
Department of Graduate Studies. The fees for each course in Analytical
Chemistry are:

       

Tuition	$40
Laboratory	10
Apparatus (contingent)	10 (for students taking two courses $15 for both).
	$60

Students from other states than Virginia taking one or both
courses in Analytical Chemistry in connection with other courses
in the College or the Department of Graduate Studies pay a total
tuition fee of $100.

D. Department of Law:

       

University Fee	$ 40
Tuition	100
Contingent Fee	10
	$150

Students taking an irregular course pay for tuition according
to the proportion which the work taken bears to the regular course.
For such course the tuition fee may be estimated approximately in
dollars as 3-10 of the total number of lecture periods.

E. Department of Medicine:

       

University Fee	$ 40
Tuition	100
Contingent Deposit	10
	$150

Breakage Deposit in Organic and Physiological Chemistry.—
Students taking courses in Organic and Physiological Chemistry are
required to deposit in addition to the charges above stated $10 to
cover cost of breakage in the laboratory.

F. Department of Engineering:

In the Department of Engineering the charges for tuition are uniform
to all students, except that Virginians are relieved of tuition (p.
107) on courses offered in the college. In addition to the university
fee of $40, the fee for each class taken will be $25, with the addition
of the prescribed laboratory charges, which are $5 for each class in
Applied Mechanics, Engineering, and Physics; $15 for Chemistry.

For each class in Analytical Chemistry a special fee of $50 is charged
for tuition and supplies plus $10 for apparatus. The fee for each
class in Drawing is $10.

The statement made above may be averaged for the four years
of the engineering courses as follows:

         

	To Students from Virginia	To Students from Other States
University Fee	$40	$ 40
Tuition and Lab. Fee	50	100
Contingent Deposit	10	10
	$100	$150

III. Cost of Living.—Under the third head fall the expenses of
living and the cost of books and stationery.

Board and Lodging.

A student may, either alone or with a room-mate, rent a dormitory,
and take his meals in the University Commons, or in an approved
private boarding-house; or he may take both room and board
in such boarding-house, in which case he pays no room-rent or
servant hire to the university. Students desiring rooms in the university
dormitories should apply to the Bursar, enclosing in every
case the reservation fee of $5, which will be returned should there
be no room to let.

University Dormitories.

The rules governing the rental and occupancy of university
dormitories are as follows:

The rates given below are for the session of nine months.

The rooms in the dormitories are unfurnished. The minimum
cost of furniture for a single room may be placed at $15 for the
session and can be secured from the local furniture dealers.

All rooms are provided with either steam or hot water heat,
electric light, and janitor service except where otherwise specified.

Randall Building. (42 Rooms)

This building contains 32 single and 10 double rooms which
are assigned only to students taking board at the University Commons,
and, any student occupying a room in this building, failing
to remain at the commons for any portion of the session, will vacate
the same.

             

Single room	$35.00
Double room	40.00
Double room with study (only one such room in building)	50.00
No janitor service is provided for rooms in this building.
The single rooms are 10×14, 10×15, or 10×16.
The double rooms are 14×15, 15×15, 15×17.
The study is 9′ 6″×11′ 6″.

East Range. (34 Rooms)

   

Rooms in Old Gymnasium building (8)	$60.00
Other rooms on East Range	72.00

West Range. (24 Rooms)

   

Rooms, no heat, but provided with grate (4)	60.00

East and West Lawns. (36 Rooms)

   

Rooms in Bachelor's Row (9) (smaller than others)	70.00
Other rooms	75.00

Dawson's Row. (56 Rooms)

 

Rooms

75.00

Dawson's Row comprises seven detached 8-room houses, water
closet in each house, lavatory with running water in each room.
Bath house with shower is provided for this row.

Monroe Hill. (13 Rooms)

 

Single room, no heat, but provided with grate

$54.00

The rooms on East and West Lawns, East and West Ranges,
Dawson's Row and Monroe Hill, with the exception of Bachelor's
Row on West Lawn, are commodious and are frequently occupied
by two students, in which event no extra charge is made.

Two students may rent a room together, each paying his half of
the rent.

The University Commons.—This building, conveniently situated
near the center of the university, provides an attractive Dining Hall,
with accommodations for more than 250 students at once. Board
is furnished at a rate not exceeding $15 per month, which means
that students in straitened circumstances need not be deprived of
daily association with their more fortunate fellows. The Commons
is the means of greatly reducing a student's living expenses at the
university.

Private Boarding and Lodging-Houses.

(The rates listed here were offered for the session of 1913-14.
Students are advised in all cases to enquire prices before engaging
board and lodging.)

The cost of books and stationery varies much with the branches
studied. It is probably greatest in the Department of Law, where,
for the entire three years' course, it amounts to about $165. But
in this department, as in that of Medicine, the books purchased
form the necessary nucleus of a professional library, and their cost
does not belong to transient expenses.

Approximate Summary of All Expenses.

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 (average for three years), lodging, board, laundry,
and books, but not clothing, travelling expenses or pocket money.
For each department three estimates are given,—a low, an average,
and a liberal estimate. The difference in the three depends on the
difference of expenditure for board, lodging, books, and laundry,—
in other words, on the scale of living of the individual student. By
sharing a room with another student, and by practicing the strictest
economy, the expenses may possibly be reduced below the low
estimate.

Virginia Students' Loan Fund.—The Virginia Students' Loan
Fund was established by an Act of the General Assembly of Virginia,
approved March 14, 1908, and amounts each year to one per
centum (1%) of the annual appropriation made by the Legislature
for the support of the university. In accordance with the terms
of this act, loans will be made "to needy and deserving students
of talent and character, from Virginia, in the Academic Departments,"
in amounts not to exceed $100 in any one session to the
student, at an annual rate of interest of 4 per centum. The applicant
for such loan must have complied with all of the requirements
for admission to the College or to the Department of Graduate
Studies. For further information regarding such loans, apply to
the Bursar, University, Virginia.

The Harvard Loan Fund.—The Harvard Loan Fund was established
in February, 1909, by an alumnus of Harvard University,
who gave to the University of Virginia the sum of $5,000, as an
evidence of the friendship and kindly relation existing between
the two institutions. Loans from this fund will be made to needy
and deserving students pursuing or intending to pursue studies in
any of the departments of the university, in amounts not to exceed
$100 in any one session to the same student, at an annual rate of
interest at 4 per centum. The applicant must have complied with
all requirements for admission to the university. Further information
regarding such loans will be furnished on application to the
Bursar, University, Virginia.

Student Self-Help.—In addition to the Loan Funds above mentioned,
opportunity is also afforded as far as possible to those who
are desirous of helping themselves by their own industry, 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 enough to pay living expenses and university
fees for the remainder of the college year. While it is difficult for
any student to be assured of renumerative work before he reaches
the university, correspondence with reference to such employment
may be had by addressing the Secretary of the Committee on
Student Self-Help, Madison Hall.

SCHOLARSHIPS AND FELLOWSHIPS.

All inquiries concerning and all applications for scholarships
and fellowships should be addressed to the dean of the university.

The president may, after due warning to the holder, declare any
scholarship or fellowship vacant at any time, if in the judgment
of the president and faculty the holder fails to give satisfactory
evidence of diligence or the faithful performance of his duties.

GENERAL SCHOLARSHIPS.

The following regulations with regard to the General Scholarships
offered by the university have been adopted by the Board of
Visitors:

UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA ACCREDITED SCHOOLS
SCHOLARSHIPS.

The faculty is authorized to prepare a list of such schools and
colleges as deserve special recognition. To each one of the institutions
placed on this list, the faculty is authorized to award a
scholarship in the College; to each of the colleges, a scholarship
in the Department of Graduate Studies, these scholarships to be
known as the University of Virginia Scholarship in — School or
College. The scholarship shall entitle the holder who must be a
graduate of his institution of the preceding session, to the remission
of all tuition and university fees, except the fees in Analytical
Chemistry and laboratory fees in general, if he be a Virginian; and
if he be not a Virginian, to the remission of all tuition fees, except
in Analytical Chemistry and laboratory fees in general, and one-half
of the university fee. The contingent fee must be deposited
in either case.

This list of schools and colleges may be extended from time
to time and further scholarships assigned as above.

In accordance with this regulation, the Faculty has selected the
following institutions for such recognition, and pending the consideration
of other institutions, invites application for enrollment in
this list from such schools as fall within the conditions prescribed

Any school accepting this scholarship shall make due announcement
of it both to the scholars of the school and through the local
papers; and at the end of the session shall, during the graduating
exercises and through the public press, announce the award; and

ALUMNI SCHOLARSHIPS.

At the meeting of the Board of Visitors on March 2d, 1899, the
following system of Alumni Scholarships was created:

1. These scholarships shall be known as Alumni Scholarships.

2. The incumbents shall be appointed by such local Alumni Associations
as are members in good standing of the General Alumni
Association and are so reported from year to year by its Secretary;
and by such of these only as may have ten or more active members
who are entitled to vote on the appointment of an incumbent.

3. No incumbent shall hold such scholarship for more than one
year; but one who has passed satisfactory examinations at the university
in one or more of his classes may be eligible for reappointment
the following session upon the recommendation of the faculty.

4. These scholarships shall be confined to those courses in the
Academic Schools of the university to which Virginia students are
now admitted without charge under the laws of Virginia (that is,
all Academic courses, save the courses in Analytical Chemistry).
The scholarship shall entitle the incumbent to exemption from tuition
fees in the Schools referred to except laboratory fees in general,
and to the remission, if he be a Virginian, of the university fee;
if he be not a Virginian, one-half of the university fee. The contingent
fee must be deposited in all cases.

5. Only such persons may be appointed as actually stand in
need of such aid, and such as otherwise would not, in the judgment
of the association making the appointment, be able to attend the university;
and no student will be permitted to enjoy the privileges of
an alumni scholarship while holding an endowed scholarship or fellowship.

6. The incumbent must be at least eighteen years of age, and
must be one who, in the judgment of the association naming him, is
studious, of good moral character, and prepared to enter the university.
He shall be subject to the same entrance requirements as other
students.

7. Every local alumni association, as above described, having
ten or more active members, shall be entitled annually to have one
appointee at the university; if hereafter such association ceases to
have as many as ten active members, it shall not be entitled to make
an appointment until that number be restored.

8. Every such local association having fifty or more active members
shall be entitled to fill two such scholarships annually, as long as
it shall continue to have as many as fifty such members, or as soon as
it shall have reached that number.

9. By "active" members as herein used, is meant alumni of the
university, who have been admitted by the association as active members
thereof, in accordance with the rules laid down by the Association.
No alumnus shall be entitled to vote upon the appointment of
an incumbent in more than one association during the same year, nor
for this purpose shall an alumnus be considered as an active member
of more than one association, at the same time. But graduation in
any department or school of the university is not hereby required.

10. Only one association in any city or town shall be entitled to
appoint incumbents to the scholarships hereby created.

11. The final appointment of each incumbent shall be made by
a vote of the whole association, a majority of the active members
voting for the applicant. It shall not finally be made by any committee
or by any officer or officers of the association. But such committee
or officers may be appointed by the association to nominate
or examine candidates, and to report to the association.

12. A statement, which shall include the full name and address
of the successful candidate, the fact of his appointment, and the specific
compliance of the association and the candidate in question with
conditions above stated, must be certified to the President of the
University of Virginia, attested by the signature of the Secretary of
the Association making the appointment. This certificate must be
in the hands of the president on or before the fifteenth day of August
preceding the opening of the session for which the incumbent

is appointed. The president will send printed forms of such certificates
upon application.

13. The above requirements having been complied with, the
person or persons so appointed shall be entitled in each instance
to attend the university for the session immediately following the
appointment without payment of any tuition fees (save for the course
in Analytical Chemistry), except laboratory fees in general, and to
the remission, if he be a Virginian, of the university fee; if he be not
a Virginian, of one-half of the university fee; the contingent fee being
deposited in each case; and shall enjoy the same privileges and
be subject to the same restrictions as other students.

14. To guard against any possible ill-feeling or sense of injustice
on the part of any local association in respect to the construction
of these provisions, all such matters shall be referred to the
Executive Committee of the General Alumni Association, the decision
of which, when approved by the President of the University, shall
be final.

SPECIAL SCHOLARSHIPS.

One of the Miller Scholarships, established in honor of the late
Samuel Miller, is awarded by the Faculty at the close of each session

trustees of the endowment to some deserving young man of Albemarle
County, who is or may desire to become a student of the University

Merrick Sampson Endowment.

The Harmon Scholarship in the Department of Law was established
by the Rector and Visitors of the university June 11, 1912, and

of the scholarship must be "a young Virginian of ability, character,
and need."

The Ryan Scholarships. Through the wisdom and benevolence
of Mr. Thomas F. Ryan there are available to young men of Virginia
ten scholarships of the value of $300 each. The tenure of each scholarship
is for one year. The conditions governing these scholarships
are the following:

(1) In June of each year on a day to be announced the previous
September and again in May, by advertisement in the newspapers,
an examination will be set in each congressional district of the state,
to be taken by candidates for the Ryan Scholarships.

(2) The above mentioned examinations will be held by committees
appointed by the president of the university and will be under
the honor system. The examination papers will be collected by the

different committees holding the examinations immediately after the
examinations are over, and returned to the university in sealed packages.
The papers will be graded by the university authorities.

(3) Before standing the examination, each candidate must submit
at least two testimonials of good character and future promise
from authoritative sources; and a letter of his own stating that he
needs financial aid to enable him to attend the university.

(4) The ground covered by the examinations will be approximately
that covered by the standard four-year public high school
course of the state, so that any candidate passing the examinations
may enter the university as a regular student. No candidate who
has already attended college will be admitted to the examinations.
Any other white male candidate over sixteen years of age, who can
satisfy the conditions set forth in these regulations will be allowed
to stand the examinations.

(5) Each candidate will be required to pay in advance to the
university a fee of $3 for the privilege of standing the examination.
This fee is not returnable.

(6) The final selection of an incumbent of each Ryan Scholarship
will be made by the president of the university; in making such selection,
weight will be given to the testimonials of character and particularly
to the evidences of future promise, submitted by the candidates,
as well as to the grades obtained on the examinations.

(7) Each candidate will be informed as to his success or failure
by the president of the university, within a reasonable time after the
examinations are held; and the names of the successful candidates will
be given to the press for the information of the public.

The William C. Folkes Scholarships, are named for the donor,
under whose will a trust-fund was established, the income of which
supports two scholarships for white young men, residents of Lynchburg

and to enter the navy or army, but are financially unable to
meet the expenses of a medical education. The incumbent must be
of good morals and physically qualified to pass the army or navy
physical examination. The holder is selected by the medical faculty
by competitive examination. The tenure of the scholarship is

and other requirements, address the Dean of the Department
of Medicine. The income is $850 a year.

of Dr. Bennet Wood Green of Warwick County, Virginia. The holders

recommendation of the faculty. By the provisions of the will, in
the selection of the incumbents preference shall be given: (1) to
graduates in medicine of this university, who are also Masters of
Arts of the university; (2) to Masters of Arts, who wish to study
abroad; (3) to graduates in law of this university, who are also

UNIVERSITY LECTURE FOUNDATIONS.

THE BARBOUR-PAGE LECTURE FOUNDATION.

The University of Virginia is indebted for the establishment of
the Barbour-Page Foundation to the wisdom and generosity of Mrs.
Thomas Nelson Page, of Washington, D. C. In 1907, Mrs. Page
donated to the University the sum of $22,000, the annual income of
which is to be used in securing each session the delivery before the
university of a series of not less than three lectures by some distinguished
man of letters or of science. The conditions of the foundation
require that the Barbour-Page lectures for each session be
not less than three in number; that they be delivered by a specialist
in some branch of literature, science, or art; that the lecturer present
in the series of lectures some fresh aspect or aspects of the
department of thought in which he is a specialist; and that the entire
series delivered each session, taken together, shall possess such
unity that they may be published by the Foundation in book form.

University, the Johns Hopkins University, the University of
Virginia, the University of Illinois, the University of Minnesota.

By the terms of the foundation, each of the above six universities
