ADMISSION.

Applicants should be at least eighteen years of age. None are admitted under fifteen. The requirements for admission embrace the common school branches and the studies of the preliminary year. The examinations in Mathematics are especially thorough. Those who make further preparations than that required before entering, can make their courses more extensive and profitable. The following suggestions are offered to such as wish to make thorough work: French and German, are pursued at least one year each. Some preparation in Latin will be of great assistance in these languages. The engineer and architect should be adepts in the various departments of drawing, and some previous study of this branch will be of great advantage. " Warren's Draughting Instruments" may be used as a text-book, and the drawings made on smooth paper, eight by ten inches.
