The tuition fee for Academical students is for the ordinary case in
which three schools are taken [p. 74]. The sums payable on entrance
include a contingent deposit of $10, which is credited in final settlement
and forms no part of the necessary expenses. It is assessed for
damage to property, violation of Library rules and so on.

To the totals of the above table must be added the cost of books
and stationery (which varies too much to be introduced into a general
estimate), and of degrees. The fees for the latter are as follows:

     

Untitled Degrees—		Titled Degrees—
Proficient [in a class]	$2 50	Bachelor of Law	$15 00
Graduate [in a school]	5 00	Doctor of Medicine	15 00

For the other titled degrees (page 64) no charge is made if the prerequisite
untitled degrees have been taken and paid for.

Candidates for a degree must deposit the fee on or before 1st May;
it will be returned if the degree is not conferred. All other University
fees must be paid on entrance. Board is payable quarterly in advance
[1 Oct., 1 Jan., 1 Apl]. Fuel is usually purchased at the beginning
of the session. Washing is paid for monthly at $1.50 a month.

An abatement of one third in fees for matriculation, dormitory rent
and tuition is made to students who enter after 1st January.

The Matriculation Fee, paid annually by every student, admits him
to the use of the Library (p. 67), the public buildings and all other
general facilities of the University.

The Infirmary Fee, paid annually by every student (except such as
live at home), entitles him in case of sickness during the session to
the advice and attendance of the Medical professors and, if necessary,
to the services of a trained nurse in the well appointed University
Infirmary.

The Dormitory Rent is paid annually by every student who lodges
in a University dormitory. Those who prefer to lodge at home or in
a licensed boarding house are permitted to do so; provided that the
rents of dormitories which remain unoccupied are assessed equally on
such privileged students.

The Board at $12 as in the table is plain, but wholesome and abundant.
Better board costs $14, $16, $18. The monthly charges at the
different clubs, hotels and boarding houses are as follows; the price in
every case includes diet, dormitory furniture and servant's attendance.
