ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS.

Required for Admission to the Department.—A candidate for admission
to the Department of Graduate Studies must have a baccalaureate degree from
a recognized institution of collegiate rank; or, in case the institution he attended
does not confer such a degree, he must present a certificate of graduation
in a course of study accepted by the Academic Faculty as fully equivalent
to that ordinarily required for the degree in question.

Required for Admission as Applicant for a Degree.—In order to be
recognized as an applicant for a Master's or Doctor's degree, any candidate
who has not received a baccalaureate degree from this university must secure
from the Registrar of the University a blank form, which, when properly
filled out, he must file with the Dean of this department, together with a catalogue
of the institution from which he graduated. If that institution has (1) a
faculty of at least six professors giving their full time to college or university
work; (2) entrance requirements equal to those of this university, and (3) a
course of four full years in the liberal arts and sciences, the candidate will not
be required to take any undergraduate courses except such as the Committee
on Rules and Courses or the professors in charge of the graduate courses he
elects may consider necessary for their successful prosecution. If, however, the
institution in question does not meet the three conditions mentioned above, the
candidate's preparation will be carefully considered by the Committee on Rules
and Courses, which will prescribe such undergraduate courses as are deemed
necessary to supply his deficiencies.
