I. UNIVERSITY CHARGES.
Under the first head are included (a) the university fee, $40 ($10
for Virginians in the Academic Departments, $20 for Virginians in the
Department of Engineering), and (b) the contingent deposit, $10; as well
as (c) certain special fees which may or may not be incurred, namely:
1. The special entrance examination fee of five dollars. 2. The delayed
registration fee of three dollars. 3. The re-examination fee of five dollars.
(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 case of illness (see page 102).
It also covers all regular examination and diploma fees.
(b) The contingent deposit is intended to cover any damage to
university property for which the student is responsible, and any fines
incurred by violating the rules of the Library. (See page 279.) It is
returned at the end of the session, less any charges that may have been
made against it.
From this deposit there will be deducted the sum of $2 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 amount. It will be observed that this sum
(which is less than the average contribution made by the students who
have subscribed to the chapel fund in past years) is not a necessary
expense, as the support of the religious work of the University is entirely
optional. 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 maintaining the religious work of
the University.
(c) 1. The special entrance examination fee of five dollars is required
of any candidate admitted to a special entrance examination, under
the provision set forth on page 83.
2. The delayed registration fee of three dollars is required of any
student who fails to register promptly at the beginning of the session or
after the Christmas recess, under the provisions set forth on page 100.
3. The re-examination fee of five dollars is required of any student
admitted to re-examination, under the provisions set forth on page 177
(the College), page 186 (the Department of Graduate Studies), and page
254 (the Department of Engineering).
