APPROXIMATE SUMMARY OF NECESSARY EXPENSES
The figures in the following tables may be taken as fairly accurate
approximations of all necessary expenses for a session of six weeks. Necessary
expenses are reckoned as university and tuition fees, laboratory fees,
lodging, board, laundry, and books, but not clothing, traveling expenses,
or pocket money. 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. If a student shares a room
reduce his expenses below the estimate.

UNIVERSITY CAFETERIA.—The University Cafeteria, conducted by
Mr. J. W. Preston, will be open for summer students and will provide
table board at very low prices. The average cost last session for three
meals per day, including all transient meals served, was $24.00 per month.
It is not necessary to reserve a place in the Cafeteria in advance.
REDUCED RAILROAD RATES.—Reduced rates on the round trip
identification plan will be authorized from points on the Chesapeake
and Ohio and the Norfolk and Western Railroads and from Southeastern
territory with the exception of stations on the New Orleans Great
Northern Railroad and the Winston-Salem Southbound Railway. The basis
will be one and one-half fare for the round trip, minimum excursion fare
$1.00, and tickets will be sold only to students and members of their families
upon presentation of identification certificates to ticket agents at time of
purchase of tickets.
Ask your station agent in advance of your coming about rates.
Tickets will be sold June 17-23, inclusive, and July 29, August 4th,
inclusive, final limit of all tickets September 10th, tickets to be validated
by the regular ticket agents of the Charlottesville terminal lines over
which such tickets read before return journey is commenced.
Application should be made to Secretary, Summer Quarter, Box 149,
University, Virginia, for identification certificates.
FEES FOR VIRGINIA TEACHERS AND STUDENTS.—Tuition is
entirely free to all Virginia teachers in all the regular courses, leading
to certification. No student, however, will be permitted to take more than
three courses without the payment of $5.00 for each additional course.
To meet local expenses, a registration fee of $5.00 for a six weeks' term
is charged. An extra fee of $5.00 will be charged for each graduate course.
There are a few special courses offered to meet certain demands, for which
fees will be charged to all who take them. The fee for each is designated
in the catalogue. Small fees in laboratory courses will also be charged all
students who register in them.
Students from Virginia who are not teachers will be charged the same
tuition as non-Virginia students.

The term "Virginia teachers" includes those who are now teaching in
Virginia or whose last teaching was in Virginia. The term cannot be construed
as meaning any of the following:
1. Those who are now teaching in other states.
2. Those whose last teaching was in other states.
3. Those who are planning to teach but have not yet taught.
Those who are planning to teach but have not yet taught, may be exempt
from the $15.00 tuition fee, if they will sign a pledge to teach in Virginia
in 1926 or, failing to do so, pay the fee.
FEES FOR NON-VIRGINIA STUDENTS.—A registration fee of five
dollars for each term and a tutition fee of $15.00 for each term will be
charged each student who registers from outside of Virginia. This fee
will entitle the student to enter any of the courses outlined in the catalogue
(except a few special courses which are so designated). No student, however,
will be permitted to take more than three courses without paying a
fee of $5.00 for each extra course. See page 15.
Note.—Teachers outside of Virginia are not limited in the choice of
courses to the regulations under which Virginia licenses are issued, unless
they desire to teach in Virginia and apply for a license issued in this
State. In this case only State certificates from other states issued by a
State Superintendent or a State Board of Examiners, and approved in
advance by the Department of Public Instruction of Virginia, will be
recognized as a proper basis for professional credit.
Teachers from other states will receive credit for all work done in accordance
with the certificate regulations of those States from which they
come. Most Southern States accept the work of the University Summer
Quarter for certificate credit or renewal.
Medical Fee.—A small medical fee of 75 cents will be charged each
person who registers each term, which will entitle him or her to free
medical attendance by Dr. J. Edwin Wood, Jr., the Physician of the
Summer Quarter, hospital phone, 548; residence phone, 820; office hours
at the hospital 8:30 to 9:30 and 4:00 to 5:00. Sundays and holidays;
8:30 to 9:30 A. M. only. Greatly reduced charges, if it should be necessary,
will be given at the University Hospital, under the following regulations:
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 Physician of the Summer Quarter; and, if necessary,
to nursing in the University Hospital at a reasonable charge for
maintenance while there. This exemption from charge does not apply to
cases requiring surgical operation, and for special treatment of the eye,
ear, nose, and throat, or to constitutional disorders from which the student
in question was suffering at the time of coming to the University. Nor
is the University responsible for the expense incurred through the employment
of private nurses, necessitated by severe illness of the student, or
through the maintenance of quarantine precautions in contagious cases.
Any student sent to the University Hospital upon the advice and under the
care of a physician other than the Summer Quarter Physician will be
required to pay the regular hospital charges for private patients.
Late Registration and Transfer Fees.—Students who fail to register on
the days specified for the purpose must pay a special fee of $1.00.
A fee of $1.00 is charged for each change from one course to another
after registration has been completed, unless such change is officially
advised.
No auditors or visitors are allowed in classes unless this privilege is
mentioned in the description of the course. All who attend must be
regularly registered and enrolled.
Refund of Fees.—Students who withdraw within the period allowed for
registration and changes in program will be reimbursed the full amount
of tuition fees and half the laboratory fees, but no other fees.
Students who withdraw after the time allowed for registration and
changes cannot be allowed reimbursement for any fees.
PAYMENT OF FEES AND OTHER EXPENSES.—The Bursar does not
cash personal checks, but will accept them in payment of the exact amount
of fees, and they will be accepted at the cafeteria for meal tickets.
Students should provide themselves with Travelers' checks, or New York
Drafts, which may be obtained from their home banks, or Postal Money
Orders.
A Branch of the Peoples National Bank of Charlottesville is located
at the University where accounts may be opened, if desired.
TIME AND PLACE OF RECITATIONS AND LECTURES.—Recitations
will begin in all courses Tuesday, June 22nd, at 8:30 a. m. There will
be no classes on Saturdays in the first term except Saturday, June 26th.
The length of recitation periods will be one hour, ten minutes of which
will be allowed for transfer from one room to another.
SUNDAY VESPER SERVICES.—Experience has shown that no Sunday
service held here during the summer has been more attractive or
more appreciated than the Vesper Service.
The service begins at half past seven o'clock and, when weather permits,
is held in the McIntire Amphitheatre. Otherwise in Cabell Hall.
The service consists of community singing, a brief address followed by
an appropriate musical program.
General Assembly.—Every evening except Saturday and Sunday, from
7:30 to 8:00 o'clock, a general assembly of students and faculty will be held
in Cabell Hall. The program will be informal and varied, and will be
musical, devotional, educational, or recreational. Assembly will be under
the direction of a faculty committee, and will be led by members of the
faculty and prominent visiting speakers.
Convocation.—In order to provide for the increasing number of students
who complete the requirements for their degrees during the Summer
Quarter, a convocation exercise will be held Friday evening, September
3rd; at 8 o'clock, when degrees will be conferred.
Each applicant for a degree in the Summer Quarter must submit to
the Dean of the Summer Quarter for approval by the proper Committee
on Degrees, the program of work leading to the degree sought, not later
than April 1st of the year in which the degree is to be obtained. If the
Committee approves the program, it will be submitted to the proper faculty
of the University for recommendation to the General Faculty and will be
finally approved by the General Faculty at the meeting in June at which
other degrees are approved.
REGISTRATION IN PERSON.—Friday, June 18th, Saturday, June
19th, and Monday, June 21st, will be devoted to the registration of students.
All students who can possibly do so should register on these days.
Those who fail to register before June 22nd, will be permitted to attend
classes, and register as promptly as possible at other hours.
A delayed registration fee of $1.00 will be charged all persons after
June 22nd.
The Registrar's office, located in Peabody Hall, will be open continuously
from 8:30 a. m. to 4:30 p. m. Students should consult freely with members
of the Faculty in case of difficulty in choosing courses. No certificate
will be granted to students who fail to register before Tuesday, June
29th, except a certificate of attendance.
No student will be enrolled in any course without a registration card
naming the course in question and properly signed by the Registrar
and the Bursar.
Registration of Suspended Students.—Probation or suspension imposed
at the end of the regular session may be absolved by the successful completion
of prescribed work in the Summer Quarter.
REGISTRATION BY MAIL.—Registration may be completed by mail
to June 11th. For the necessary blanks, address, Secretary Summer
Quarter. Box 149, University, Virginia.
The following classes of students may register by mail:
1. Students previously enrolled in the Summer Quarter, or the regular
session of the University.
2. New students who do not need advice on their program of work,
or on a particular course which they wish to take.
Registration by mail is intended only for those who know the program
of studies which they may or should take. All such prospective
students are urged to register by mail. This will avoid the great congestion
on registration days, and enable the students to arrive a day or
two later.
Fees of those registering by mail should be paid at the Bursar's Office
after arrival at the University.
THE GENERAL LIBRARY.—The General Library is open to the corps
of instructors and the students of the Summer Quarter, from 9 a. m. to
9:30 p. m. The collection contains about seventy thousand volumes.
All books withdrawn from the library must be charged at the desk.
Usually books are lent for one week but there are exceptions, and the
loan expires on the date stamped in the book. Prompt return not later
than the date on which the loan expires is expected and borrowers will
be fined ten cents for each day delinquent. Students are expected to give
prompt attention to all communications from the librarian.
THE HECK MEMORIAL LIBRARY.—The Department of Education
maintains its own library in Peabody Hall, named in honor of the
first professor of Education in the University, the late Professor William
Harry Heck. At present the library consists of several thousand well
selected volumes covering most fields of Education, and files of national,
state, and foreign publications. It also will be open from 9 a. m. to
9:30 p. m.
REST AND STUDY ROOMS.—Madison Hall, the beautiful building
of the Young Men's Christian Association, and during the summer
session headquarters for the Y. W. C. A., will be open to students and
Faculty of the Summer Quarter, from nine o'clock in the morning until
ten at night. Students will have access to the current periodicals in
the reading room. The other rooms will be used for rest, for study, for
nineteen tennis courts which will be equipped for the use of the students.
The Secretary in charge requests the co-operation of all and invites each
student to make the Y. W. C. A. her "home" while at the University.
THE NEW MEMORIAL GYMNASIUM.—The new Memorial Gymnasium
is situated between the athletic field and the University golf
links, and offers facilities unsurpassed in any American university. The
main exercise room is 180 by 96 feet, with a ten-foot running track gallery
of twelve laps to the mile. There is also an auxiliary gymnasium 30 by
70 feet. The swimming pool is 30 by 75 feet, with a gallery for spectators.
A general locker room provides for 1700 full-length steel lockers, with two
shower rooms. There are also spacious locker rooms and baths for home
and visiting teams as well as special rooms for boxing, fencing, and wrestling,
and three handball courts. The administration wing includes offices
for the staff, examination rooms and a large lecture room.
STUDENTS' MAIL.—In order to insure safe and prompt delivery of
mail, every student should have all mail directed to, University, Virginia,
giving always the street and number of his or her boarding place or the
number and location of his or her room in the University. The local
address should be filed at the post office promptly upon arrival.
Before leaving, each student should file at the post office his or her
forwarding address; otherwise, mail without return address which comes
after the student has departed, will be sent to the dead letter office.
TEACHERS' POSITIONS.—The Appointment Committee of the Summer
Quarter receives demands for teachers each year. This committee is
glad to have well qualified teachers who are in attendance upon the Summer
Quarter file their applications. There will be no charge for this service
except a small registration fee of $1.00 to assist in the expenses of the
Committee.
REGULATIONS CONCERNING CREDIT.—The instructor giving each
course will keep the class grades and attendance, hold the examination and
average the class grade with the examination grade, returning to the Dean
of the Summer Quarter the general average grade of each student in
each course. Absences or delayed entrance will be counted against the
student. All examinations must be held under the Honor System. A
report of each course completed with an average grade of 75 per cent.
will be signed by the Registrar of the Summer Quarter and mailed to the
student. Each student who wishes his or her report sent, should file with
the registrar not later than July 17th, a self-addressed government-stamped
envelope for mailing it.
Credit Allowed by Other States Than Virginia.—Application has been
made to other Southern States for credit equal to that accorded by the
Virginia State Board of Education. Credit is now allowed toward the
extension of certificates by most of the Southern States. All persons
wishing to arrange for credits with their respective school authorities
should correspond with the Dean of the Summer Quarter.
Entrance Credit.—Where college courses in the Summer Quarter are
taken to absolve conditions or to meet entrance requirements, no more
than three units of entrance credit may be obtained in a full quarter.
University of Virginia College Credit.—Below are stated the conditions
upon which credit in the University of Virginia may be granted for work
done in the Summer Quarter.
(a) The student must satisfy the entrance requirements of the University
of Virginia and matriculate before he can receive credit in the
College for any work done in the University of Virginia Summer Quarter.
(b) The Dean of the College will accept the completion of the courses
in the summer quarter in lieu of the entrance examinations in the same
subject, provided that in his judgment the courses are equivalent to those
required for entrance to the University of Virginia, and provided, that
the certificate of courses completed be approved by the University of
Virginia professor concerned.
(c) The Dean of the College will accept certificates of completion of
summer courses in the University of Virginia, provided that such summer
courses be approved by the University of Virginia professor concerned as
the full equivalent in character and scope of the corresponding courses in
the University.
All courses for which degree credit is designated in this catalogue
have been approved by the professors concerned and will be accepted
by the Dean for such credit as is indicated in the description of each
course.
(d) Students both men and women who satisfy entrance requirements
will not only receive credit in the University of Virginia for college courses
taken in the Summer Quarter, but the summer work is recognized by
standard colleges everywhere, so that students have no difficulty in securing
transfer of credits.
(e) That graduate courses completed in the Summer Quarter if approved
by the Committee on Graduate Studies, shall be credited just
as if they were taken in the regular session; that residence work aggregating
three summer quarters shall be considered as fulfilling the
residence requirements for the master's degree.
College Credit.—Candidates who desire credit for work done at other
colleges, must satisfy the entrance requirements for regular students,
and must, in addition, file with the Dean of the Summer Quarter a certificate
covering the courses for which college credit is desired. The certificate
must bear the official signature of the head of the candidate's college,
must specify the character and content of the courses passed by the candidate,
and must give his grades. The final validation of such certificates
is effected by the successful completion of the courses taken in this university.
In no case will credit be given on more than forty-five session-hours
of work done elsewhere, and any candidate who receives this maximum
amount of credit can count among the remaining fifteen session-hours
required for his degree only the credit value of the courses he has
passed as a resident student in the Summer Quarter. In every case the
candidate must spend at least three full summer quarters in this
University.
