are satisfied that his reasons for seeking the Degree, and his academic qualifications are sufficient; letters testimonial from the authorities of the applicant's College as to character to be sent to the Senior Proctor in every case.

The fee for the B.A. Degree ad eundem is £13 58., as the Candidate must place his name on the College books. In all other cases the fee is the same as that payable by Dublin Graduates.

Candidates who have paid to the Senior Proctor the fee for a Degree ad eundem may present themselves for the examination for a higher Degree on payment of the regular examination fee, and before the ad eundem Degree has been conferred, and if the Candidate be successful, the higher and lower Degrees may be conferred at the same Commencements.

For the purpose of ascertaining the date at which a higher Degree may be taken, the Candidate is reckoned as having taken the lower Degree ad eundem on the date at which he obtained the corresponding Degree in his own University.

Application for the Degree of B.A. ad eundem must be made through the Senior Lecturer, in all other cases through the Senior Proctor. (Resolution of the Board, 23 June, 1917.)

The University is entitled to charge a fee not exceeding £1 in respect of registration as an elector who claims as a Graduate. Forms of application may be obtained on application to the Assistant to the Registrar of University Electors.

Trinity College.

[ocr errors]

ORDER OF RANK IN THE COLLEGE.

THE several orders in the College are the following:

1. The PROVOST or Head of the College; who must be not less than thirty years of age.

2. FELLOWS; who were formerly bound to enter into Priest's Orders, except five: of whom one was elected Medicus, by the Provost and Senior Fellows, and two others were elected Jurista juris Civilis and Jurista juris Anglici, respectively. This obligation to take Holy Orders was removed by the Act 36 Victoria, chap. 21.

3. NOBLEMEN, SONS OF NOBLEMEN, and BARONETS, who are matriculated as such under the title of Nobilis, Filius Nobilis, and Eques.

4. DOCTORS in the several Faculties, BACHELORS IN DIVINITY, and MASTERS IN ARTS, SURGERY, OBSTETRIC SCIENCE, CIVIL ENGINEERING, DENTAL SCIENCE, LETTERS, AND SCIENCE. Doctors and Masters have no Collegiate privileges or duties, unless their names are kept on the College Books.

5. BACHELORS IN CIVIL LAW, MEDICINE, SURGERY, OBSTETRIC SCIENCE, CIVIL ENGINEERING, DENTAL SCIENCE, AGRICULTURE, and BACHELORS IN ARTS. They are not required to keep their names on the University or on the College Books in order to entitle them to proceed to the higher Degrees. All Graduates are entitled to be registered as Parliamentary electors for the constituency of the University of Dublin. Graduates other than Doctors and Masters should apply to the Assistant Registrar.

6. FELLOW-COMMONERS, who have the privilege of dining at the Fellows' Table.

7. SCHOLARS who are on the foundation, being members of the Corporation of the College (see under Scholarship).

The number of Scholars is seventy, of whom thirty were formerly termed natives (Hibernici), but this distinction has been abolished by King's Letter, S Geo. IV.

8. PENSIONERS, namely ordinary Students in Arts.

9. SIZARS, who are Students of limited means, having their commons free of expense, and being exempted from annual fees. They were formerly nominated, one by each Fellow, and eight or more (provided the number of thirty were not exceeded) by the Provost. They are now admitted annually by an examination (see "Sizarships "), and the number is not limited to thirty.

COLLEGE CHARGES.

I. Undergraduate Fees.-Before the name of any Student can be placed upon the College Books, the amount of Entrance Fees specified below must be paid to the Junior Bursar. The payment must be made within one week of the declaration of the result of the Entrance Examination. Fees not paid within the specified time are subject to the Tardy Payment charge of 3s. per week, and if not paid within six weeks of the declaration, the Entrance Docket is cancelled. In the case, however, of those who intend to present themselves at a Term Examination on the day following the days of Entrance, the payment must be made on the last day of the Entrance Examination.

The following statements contain the practice with regard to Arts Fees:

(a). For Pensioners, the Entrance and half-yearly Fees are fifteen pounds and eight guineas respectively; for Fellow-Commoners, thirty pounds and sixteen guineas respectively, and for Filii Nobilium, sixty pounds and thirty-two guineas respectively. Sizars pay £1 1s. 3d. Entrance Fee, and are exempt from halfyearly Fees.

Pensioners entering after 31st December, 1920, will be charged the sum of two guineas in addition to each of the above half-yearly fees of eight guineas.

(b). Students who enter after the March quarter in any year and present themselves at the Trinity Term Examination in May, or the Trinity Lectures, or the Supplemental Hilary Term Examination in June, or the Michaelmas Term Examination in October, must pay the first half-yearly fee before presenting themselves for any Term Examination or Lectures; and they must pay a second half-yearly Fee at the end of October

Students who enter after the March quarter, and do not present themselves for any of the above Examinations or Lectures, pay the first half-yearly Fee in the April of the succeeding year.

The names of Students who enter between the end of March Quarter and the 1st of November are not placed upon the College Books unless the payment to the Junior Bursar entitles them to be put in the existing Junior Freshman Class.

(c). A Student who goes through his Course in the regular way (ie. without dropping a Class) will pay to the Junior Bursar, in addition to the Entrance Fee, eight half-yearly Fees, payable in April and October in each year; and no Student can rise to the standing of a Candidate Bachelor until he has made the last of these half-yearly payments. Students should remember that the fee of two pounds for the conferring of the Degree must be paid to the Junior Bursar on or before the day preceding the Commencements at which they present themselves.
