UNIVERSITY SCHOLARSHIPS.
Eleven Scholarships, entitling the successful candidates at a competitive
examination to prosecute their studies for one session at the
University of Virginia without the payment of matriculation fees or
tuition fees, will be open to new-comers from all the States at the beginning
of the next academic year (October 1st). Of these eleven
Scholarships five are in the Academic Department, and two each in
the departments of Law, of Medicine, and of Industrial Chemistry,
Civil and Mining Engineering and Agriculture. The examination is
uniform, and embraces Latin, Greek, Mathematics, and English; and
in order to secure positive attainments the right is reserved to reject
any papers that do not reach the standard required for distinction
at the Final Examination in Junior Latin, Junior Greek, and Junior
Mathematics, and do not show a competent acquaintance with the
grammatical and rhetorical structure of the English language.
