MEDICAL SCIENCES

Courses in the medical sciences are offered primarily for medical students
who are deficient in these subjects and desire to make a review. These
courses are not equivalent in time or identical in presentation to courses
given in these subjects during the regular session of the Medical School.
All matriculants pay a registration fee of $5.00 in addition to tuition and
laboratory fees. No courses will be given in any group if less than six students
apply for the courses. Applications should be sent in as far in
advance as possible in order that it may be determined whether or not the
course will be given.

except Saturdays. Hours to be announced later. Tuition fee $50.00.
Laboratory fee $7.50. Dr. Jordan.
