EXPENSES

The figures in the following table may be taken as fairly accurate approximations
of all necessary expenses for a session of nine months. The necessary expenses
included here are 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 differences 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. The
student who shares a room with another student, and practices the strictest economy,
may possibly reduce expenses below the low estimate.
