TRANSFER OF CREDITS 55 seeking advanced standing on the basis of their preparatory work, such standing shall be granted after satisfactory examination only, unless the applicants are from fully accredited schools. In that case a transfer of credits may be made as provided below. 2. By Transfer of Credits.—Credits from other colleges or universities may be accepted by the Faculty for advanced standing; but at least one year's work in residence at the University is required of all candidates for a bachelor's degree. In all cases a certificate of honorable dismissal is required, together with a certified record of work done in the institution from which the applicant comes. These should be presented for approval some time before the student enters for work. Upon approval of the Faculty freshmen may receive credit for advanced work done in fully accredited high schools. REGISTRATION At the beginning of each semester each student must present himself for registration within the time set for that purpose, before the formation of classes, and he must be present at the first exercise of each class he is to attend. EXAMINATIONS Examinations are held as often as in the judgment of the instructor the necessities of the work require. Examinations are also given at the close of each semester, on the work of the semester, in all subjects except those whose character renders it unnecessary or impracticable. A record is kept of each student's standing. SEMESTERS AND RECESS The University year is divided into semesters each covering eighteen weeks of instruction. There is a recess of two weeks at the Christmas holidays. For dates of opening and closing, see Calendar, p. 5.
