ADMISSION WITH ADVANCED STANDING.

Applicants from other universities and from colleges affiliated with the
University of Virginia will be admitted to advanced standing as candidates
for degrees from this University upon presentation of proper certificates,
covering the courses for which credit is desired. Such certificates must
be filed with the Dean of the Department in which the student is
registered. They must be acceptable both to the Dean and to the Professor
in charge of the course accredited. The certificate must bear the
official signature of the head of the college; must specify the character
and content of the course followed by the student; must give his marks,
which should in no case fall below the standard seventy-five per cent.
of this University; and must recommend the student as worthy of
admission to the University of Virginia in respect of both character and
scholarship. The final validation of such certificates is effected by the
successful completion of the courses attended in this University.

recommendation of the Committee on Academic Degrees.
