For the determination of the students' right to advancement and graduation each department makes such rules as it deems necessary, and the result is indicated as "Passed with Honor," "Passed,' or "Not Passed."'

At the end of each year, at the end of the pre-clinical period and at the end of the period of required work the students' records are referred to the respective committees on instruction for review. Students who fail to pass in any two major subjects, in one major and three minor subjects, or in six minor subjects may be dropped from the Medical School. Students who fail to pass in a major subject or in three minor subjects will be placed on probation and must take a second examination before the following half-year. Students who fail in the second examination may be dropped from the Medical School.

No student may advance with his class if he has failed to pass satisfactorily any essential part of the requirements of the previous term. A student who has received the lowest passing grade in the majority of the courses in which he is enrolled may be required to pass satisfactorily a general examination (including all subjects of the previous year or years) before the Committee on Instruction concerned.

Students who have an unabsolved failure at the end of the fourth year will not be recommended as entitled to the degree of Doctor of Medicine or permitted to enter their intern year until the failure is absolved in such manner as may be indicated by the Advisory Board of the Medical School.

The Faculty reserves the right to sever the connection of any student with the Medical School at any time for what it deems either mental, physical, or moral unfitness for a career in medicine.

LEAVES OF ABSENCE

Students who withdraw from the Medical School without notice or who fail to report after a leave of absence will automatically terminate their connection with the Medical School.

REQUIREMENTS FOR GRADUATION

The candidate for the degree of Doctor of Medicine must have attained the age of twenty-one years and must be of good moral character. He must have studied medicine for four full years and must have attended four annual courses as a matriculated student (not including the fifth, or intern year), the last of which has been spent in this school. He must have completed the required work, have fulfilled satisfactorily all special requirements, and have received a satisfactory grade throughout the entire medical course. He must have discharged all indebtedness to the school.

FIFTH YEAR

Students are required to supplement the academic course in medicine with a year as intern in an approved hospital or laboratory, or as a special worker in a department of the Medical School. Qualified students may take their year's laboratory work after any half-year.

CURRICULA IN PUBLIC HEALTH
