242 PREPARATORY SCHOOL American life is desired, rather than the memorization of isolated dates and names. Entrance should be made at the opening of the term. Examinations are held in the rooms of the school. For the fall term, 1896, these examinations occur on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, the 3d, 4th, and 5th of September; for the winter and spring terms, on the two days previous to the opening of each term. Examinations on these dates are free, but for examinations at other times a fee of three dollars is charged. Examinations may be conducted in Illinois by county superintendents of schools in the same manner as for teachers' certificates, and their favorable reports will be accepted for entrance. First or second grade teachers' certificates from superintendents of Illinois will be taken for the same purpose, as will also certificates of the accomplishment of not less than one full year's work in a high school accredited by the University. COURSE OF STUDY The time necessary for the completion of the course offered is not fixed, but depends on the ability and previous training of the student. Applicants will be admitted at any time on presenting proof that they are prepared to pursue the selected subjects. Preparatory students generally carry four studies, one of which should be such as needs but -little work outside of the class room. The number varies, however with the ability of the student and the nature of the course.
