INFOR,'I\ATION FOR GRADUATE STUDENTS 107
3. Men of exceptional attainments who are not graduates of
a college or university of good standing may, in each case by
special vote of the Committee on Graduate Study, be admitted
to graduate standing.
4. Since admission to graduate work will be granted only to a
limited number of students of superior ability, applications should
be made as long as possible before the opening of the school year,
preferably by the first of March. Students applying for assistantships
or fellowships do not need to make separate application
for admission to graduate standing. See Section X.
5. Admission to graduate standing does not of itself admit to
candidacy for the degree of Master of Science or Doctor of
Philosophy. As to this, see pages llO, Ill.
II. FEES
1. Tuition for graduate students is in general $250 a year,
payable in three installments, $90 at the beginning of the first
term and $80 at the beginning of the second and third terms
(except that holders of Institute Fellowships and Assistantships
pay only $180 a year, payable in three installments of $60 each).
For graduate students who have been admitted to candidacy for
the Doctor's degree, the tuition will thereafter be at one-half the
above rates. Graduate students who are permitted to carryon
research during the summer will not be required to pay tuition
fees; but in order to obtain credit for such summer work, they
must register for it in advance.
2. No other fees except for breakage are required of graduate
students. Students in chemistry are required to make a deposit
of $15 at the beginning of the school year to cover their breakage
charges.
3. No degrees will be granted until all bills due the Institute
have been met.
III. REGISTRATION
1. Application for admission should be made well in advance
of the time of registration (see page 68).
