SPECIAL REGULATIONS
With the permission of the Registration Committee, a student
of ability who must support himself wholly or in part by outside
work and consequently would be unable to meet the scholarship
requirements in four years may be admitted at the beginning
of his sophomore year to a part-time schedule allowing an extra
year for the completion of his course. The scholastic standing
of students in these part-time courses shall be determined on the
basis of seventy-five per cent of the credits mentioned in scholastic
requirements 1 and 2 above. Tuition shall be at the rate
of $200 per year for students who entered as freshmen prior to
September, 1929, and have pursued their course continuously in
the Institute. For students entering as freshmen in September,
1929, or thereafter, the tuition will correspond to the advanced
rates of tuition as stated on page 71.
If for any other reason a student is carrying less than 40 units,
the credits required (as stated in paragraphs 1 and 2 on pages
76-77) shall be prorated on the basis of 40 as a maximum. For
example, a man carrying 32 units of work shall be expected to obtain
four-fifths of 80, or 64 credits, to remain off probation.
Applications for registration in excess of the prescribed number
of units must be approved by the Registration Committee.
Prolonged leave of absence must be sought by written petition
to the faculty, and the student must indicate the length of time,
and the reasons, for which absence is requested. In case of brief
absences from any given exercise, arrangements must be made
with the instructor in charge.
Freshmen should make application, shortly before the close
of the school year, for admission to the second year of the Course
in Engineering or of the Course in Science.
