SUITABLE SCHOOL RECORD REQUIRED FOR ADMISSION

Old Plan Candidates Must Conform to This Present Regulation For New Plan.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

At the last meeing of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences the following rule was added to the regulations governing the admission of students to the University: "Every candidate for admission under the old plan is required to furnish with his application for admission an official statement of his preparation, and no such candidate will be registered as a final candidate unless it clearly appears by his record that he will have at the time he takes his examinations a preparation which may fairly be presumed to cover a school course sufficient for admission by the old plan."

It was also voted to abandon the distinction between elementary and advanced history. Modern European history, including English (as defined in the report of the Committee of Five of the American Historical Association) will be accepted as an additional unit of history for admission to College, it being understood that it may not be counted by candidates who have already received credit for Mediaeval and Modern History or for English History."
