high school course or during the University summer sessions. No equiv alent for this work is offered during the regular sessions of the University. Applicants for the College of Letters, the College of Social Sciences, or for other courses of study requiring matriculation Latin, subject 6, should notice that the University does not offer instruction in this subject either during the regular sessions or during the summer sessions. Applicants who enter the colleges of Letters, Social Sciences, or Commerce with less than twelve units of matriculation credit for foreign language may find it necessary to complete an unusual amount of foreign language during the freshman and sophomore years. Admission with Deficiencies-The question of admitting an applicant to the University with matriculation deficiencies is decided in each case by the Academic Senate or its committees upon the merits of the case. In general, applicants with less than forty-five units of matriculation credit are not admitted. ADMISSION FROM CALIFORNIA STATE NORMAL SCHOOLS By a provision of the Academic Senate, the State normal schools of California may recommend their graduates for admission without examination; but students who come from the normal schools without credit for the required matriculation work in foreign languages will be conditioned in this requirement. Any courses (e.g., French or German) taken in the University for the purpose of satisfying requirements for matriculation are credited only for matriculation, and not as a part of the 124 or more units required for the degree. Graduates of the California State normal schools who are also graduates of accredited high schools may, under certain conditions, receive advanced credit in the University amounting to forty-eight units of the sixty-four units required for the Junior Certificate. The credit so granted may, at the discretion of any University department concerned, be accepted as satisfying prerequisites for advanced or major work. A form of recommendation for admission to the University from the State normal schools will be furnished by the Recorder of the Faculties upon application. ADMISSION FROM SCHOOLS OUTSIDE OF CALIFORNIA Students desiring to matriculate from states other than California will be accepted upon presenting an admission certificate from any of the dental schools holding membership in the Dental Faculties Association of American Universities. The schools holding membership in this Association are: Harvard University Dental School, University of Pennsylvania School of Dentistry, University of Michigan School of Dentistry, University of Iowa School of Dentistry, University of Minnesota School of Dentistry, Univer sity of California School of Dentistry.

ADMISSION TO ADVANCED GRADES ON CERTIFICATES The College will receive into the advanced grades of second year and third year only such students as hold certificates of having passed examinations in the studies of the first-year or second-year grades respectively, in a school which demands the same or higher preliminary educational requirements and maintains the same curriculum; except a student presenting satisfactory evidence of graduation from a reputable medical college, who may then be received into the second-year grade, provided he make up such subjects taught in the first year as he has not previously studied. All students who have successfully passed their examinations for advanced standing and have complied with all the rules of the College of Dentistry shall have their certificates given or mailed to them within thirty days after such examinations shall have been completed, such certificates to be pledges to any college to whom the holders may apply, that the requisite number of terms have been spent in the College of Dentistry, University of California. SPECIAL STUDENTS Special students may be admitted on such entrance requirements as the Faculty may determine. They will be required to attend courses they desire to pursue with the same regularity as the regular students, and will pay the regular tuition fee; no diploma or certificate shall be issued at the close of such special study. Applicants desiring to register as special students will be required to indicate what subjects they desire to pursue, and to present satisfactory credentials for matriculation in said subjects. Matriculants who desire to postpone the pursuit of their studies in the College of Dentistry after matriculation on account of sickness or other good cause to be determined by the Faculty shall present a written application for leave of absence to the Dean, which may be allowed for a period of one year. THE MASTER'S DEGREE Bachelors of Arts, Letters, or Sciences of this University who are pursuing regular courses leading to a degree in the College of Dentistry will be recommended to the appropriate Faculty for an appropriate master's degree (M.A., M.L., or M.S.), under the following conditions: (a) The candidate, already a bachelor, must have finished creditably two years of the curriculum of the professional college. (b) He must have received credit, in addition to his work for the professional degree, for a seminar or research course of the value of four units; and such seminar or research course must be approved by the Academic Council; and he must present a dissertation or thesis, subject to the usual regulation for the master's degree. EXTRACTS FROM REGULATIONS The following are the regulations governing undergraduate attendance, except such as are given elsewhere in this Announcement: ATTENDANCE Eighty per cent of attendance will be required in all lecture and laboratory courses are well as in general attendance. Every student is required to attend all his class exercises and to satisfy the instructor in each of his courses of study, in such a way as the instructor may determine, that he is performing the work of the course in a systematic manner. Any instructor, with the approval of the Dean, may at any time exclude from his course any student who, in his judgment, has neglected the work of the course. Any student thus excluded shall be recorded as having failed in the course of study from which he is excluded, unless the Faculty shall otherwise determine. EXAMINATIONS No student will be excused from assigned examinations. No book, manuscript or other source of information shall be brought into any examination room, except by the explicit order of the examiner. Nor shall any student, in the course of an examination, have any communication with another student for any reason whatever. Any student tardy at an examination will be debarred from taking it, unless an excuse for such tardiness entirely satisfactory to the examiner be rendered. A fee of five dollars is charged for every special examination. Any supplementary or deferred test required by an instructor of a student for the purpose of making up a course left "incomplete" is regarded as a special examination. Students taking two or more such examinations in courses taken during any one half-year will be charged not to exceed ten (10) dollars for all such examinations, instead of being charged at the rate of five dollars for each examination. GRADES OF SCHOLARSHIPS The results of examinations, together with term work when a record of the latter is kept, will be ranked and reported to the Recorder in five grades. The 1st grade denotes marked excellence. The 2nd grade indicates that the student's work has been thoroughly satisfactory. The 3rd grade denotes a pass. Courses in which students have obtained a 4th grade will not be credited to them, except upon the condition of passing a re-examination. The 5th grade indicates a failure and the necessity of repeating not only the examinations of a course, but also the regular work, in accordance with these regulations. The report in case of absence from an examination, or of failure to perform any of the allotted tasks in a given course, is incomplete. Work so reported must be made up within a year. Re-examinations are permitted only for the purpose of removing deficiencies. Students who have received second grade or third grade in a given course are not allowed re-examinations for the purpose of improving their grading. CONDITIONS AND FAILURES For the removal of conditions, students shall have the privilege of taking the regular mid-year or annual examinations in the subjects in which they are conditioned. Examinations may be held at other times only by special permission of the Academic Council and on payment of a fee of five dollars. |
