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 nine months. As
necessary expenses are reckoned here University, tuition, athletic and Topics
fees, laboratory fees, lodging, board, laundry, and books, but not clothing,
traveling expenses, or pocket money. For each department 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 with another student, and practices the strictest
economy, he may possibly reduce his expenses below the estimate.

Student Self-Help.—The University maintains a Bureau of Student Self-Help
for the benefit of students who wish to obtain remunerative employment
while pursuing their studies. Opportunities for employment are not


158

Page 158
infrequent, but no new student should attempt to attend the University unless
he has sufficient private resources to defray at least half of the expenses
of his first session. After a student has arrived at the University, the Bureau
will make every effort to find suitable work for him, but no assurance of
employment can be given until after the student's arrival.

Students who desire the assistance of the Bureau are invited to apply
for information by addressing the Director, Box 1487, University, Virginia.

Loans will be provided for deserving students. See page 174.

 
[8]

Deduct $50 for Virginians and $75 for non-Virginians in the Department of Education, for those with credit for
10 courses or more.

Deduct $20 for Virginians and $160 for non-Virginians in the Graduate Department.

[9]

Add $20 to the tuition for non-Virginians in Law and $50 in Medicine.

BOARD AND LODGING

Dormitories.—Students may reside in the University dormitories, in their
homes, or in private houses approved by the President. The President will
withdraw from the approved list any house in which the regulations as
to the conduct of students are not observed. Any change of residence during
the session should be reported at the office of the Registrar.

The Halls are reserved for first-year college and engineering students
from high schools or preparatory schools who are required to live in them
unless excused for special reasons by the Dean of the University.

Supervision is provided by Counselors living in each unit of the Halls.
These Counselors are responsible to the Dean for maintenance of order and
the enforcement of University regulations, and are prepared to be of assistance
to the occupants in an advisory capacity.

For rules governing the rental and occupancy of University dormitories,
and the rates charged for the same, see below. For list of private lodging
houses, with rates, apply to Bursar.

The University Dormitories

The dormitories of the University of Virginia consist of The Halls, East
Lawn and West Lawn, East Range and West Range, Dawson's Row, and
Randall Building.

Hot water heat and electric light are furnished throughout the dormitories.

Each occupant of a dormitory room must provide a pillow, pillow cases,
single sheets, blankets, towels, etc., and whatever rugs, curtains, etc., he
may desire.

Description and Rates

The Halls.—The most comfortable, best-equipped, and most modern rooming
accommodations in the University or in the city are to be found in the
new University dormitories, erected in 1929. This group of eight buildings
stands on the crest of the slope west of Monroe Hill, with an outlook on the
Ragged Mountains and the range of the Blue Ridge, and is within less than
three minutes walking distance from the gymnasium, the academic, engineering
and law class-rooms, and the University Commons.

These eight buildings are divided into twelve separate units, known as
Halls, each with its individual entrance, and each bearing the name of some
professor, distinguished in the history of the University. The buildings are


159

Page 159
of three stories and of full fire-proof brick and cement construction throughout.
They provide one hundred and fifty-three two-room apartments, of
living-room and bedroom, each apartment intended to accommodate two
students.

All of the rooms are approximately fifteen feet square. Each living-room
has an open fire-place and is furnished with a desk with drawers, a table
with drawer, a steel waste-basket, two rocking-chairs, two straight chairs and
floor-plugs for reading lamps. Each bedroom has two large built-in clothes
closets, and is furnished with two single beds, two chiffoniers, and two
straight chairs. All furniture is new, of excellent quality and attractive design,
the bed-springs and mattresses of especially high grade.

There is an average of one bathroom to every five students. The bathrooms,
each equipped with showers and an individual built-in steel locker and
a medicine chest with mirror for each student using it, are so placed that
every bedroom, with one sole exception, opens directly into a bath.

Telephone service is provided in each Hall. Trunks and packing cases
will not be permitted in the apartments of The Halls dormitories. They
must be delivered to the trunk room in each Hall from which the student
will remove the contents to his room. Trunks and packing cases will be
stored in dry racks located in the basement. Each apartment will ordinarily
be occupied by two students. The rental for the nine months of the regular
session is $125 per student (or $250 for each apartment).

East Lawn and West Lawn are of one-story brick construction. They contain
thirty-eight rooms, each approximately twelve feet square, located between
the pavilions and opening into colonnades running the entire length
of "The Lawn." The rental of twenty-seven of the rooms, for the session,
is $125 for one occupant or $170 for two occupants. The remaining nine
rooms, called Bachelors' Row, rent for $115 for one occupant, or $160 for
two occupants. These rooms are reserved for applicants for senior degrees.

East Range and West Range consist of forty-six one-story brick rooms,
approximately twelve feet square, built in sections running the entire length
of "The Ranges," and opening into arcades. In addition, there are two two-story
brick houses called the Old Gymnasium and the Club House, containing
fourteen rooms, approximately fifteen feet square. The rental of the
rooms on the Ranges, for the session, is $125 for one occupant or $170 for
two. The rooms in the Old Gymnasium and the Club House rent for $80
for one occupant or $110 for two.

Dawson's Row consists of a series of four eight-room two-story brick
houses, and a six-room one-story brick house, located on the southwest side of the
grounds. The rooms are approximately fifteen feet square. The rental of
fifty-one of the rooms, for the session, is $95 for one occupant or $130 for
two. Four of the rooms rent for $60 for one occupant or $80 for two.

All of the rooms on the Lawns and Ranges and in Dawson's Row are
provided with running cold water. For each of the Lawns and Ranges one
bath-house is provided and there is a bath-house in Dawson's Row.

Randall Building.—A two-story brick building, located at the south end of
East Range, containing thirty-one single rooms ten by fourteen, ten by fifteen


160

Page 160
and ten by sixteen; eight double rooms fourteen by fifteen, fifteen by fifteen
and fifteen by seventeen; one double room with study-room attached. Single
rooms rent at $80 to $90; double rooms $125 for one occupant or $150 for
two occupants. Double room with study-room attached, for one occupant
$135, or $180 for two occupants.

The furnishing of the rooms on the Lawns and Ranges, in Dawson's
Row and Randall Building is as follows: For one occupant—an enameled iron
bed with comfortable springs and mattresses, a chiffonier, a table, a straight
chair and a rocking-chair. For two occupants—two single beds or one double-deck
bed with springs and mattresses, one chiffonier, one desk or two tables,
one rocking-chair and two straight chairs.

BOARD

Board.—Students may board at the University Commons, at their homes,
or in private boarding houses or restaurants approved by the President. For
cost of board at the University Commons, see below. For list of private
boarding houses, with rates, apply to the Bursar.

University Commons

Meals may be had at the University Commons, a handsome building overlooking
the McIntire Theatre and within two minutes walk of the dormitories.
The interior of the beautiful penelled main room makes a charming atmosphere
for dining and the furnishings are attractive. The meals are prepared by an
experienced chef under the supervision of a trained dietitian and careful attention
is given to quality and service. Board is supplied at cost and it is
expected that the rate will in no event exceed $25 per month. Since the
capacity of the Commons limits the number accommodated to about 350, it
is essential that students make early application for reservation to Dr. E. A.
Kincaid, Manager, 15 Monroe Hall.

 
[1]

These charges are for three or more courses. For one course the student will pay
one-third, and for two courses, one-half of the University fee and tuition, for the session.
