Applicants for loans, if not already registered as students in the University,
must have complied with all the requirements for entrance. All inquiries concerning
loans should be addressed to the Bursar, University, Va.

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 five thousand dollars as an evidence of the friendship
and kindly relations 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 department of the University, in amounts not to exceed
one hundred dollars in any one session to a single student, at an annual rate of
interest of four per cent.

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 cent. 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 one hundred dollars in any one session to a single student, at an annual
rate of interest of four per cent.

Robert E. Lee Loan Fund.—In October, 1914, a gift of ten thousand
dollars was made to the University by a veteran of the Federal Army, who
wished in this way to express his interest in this institution and his admiration
for General Lee. Loans from this fund will be made to deserving students
in any department who stand in need of such assistance.
