The plan of a Divided Examination has been adopted, in accordance with which students who propose to enter the Freshman Class in the summer of 1884 may present themselves in June or September, 1883, for examination on the studies in which they are then proficient; provided they are prepared to be examined on not less than four of the topics naned in the conditions of Examinations. A record of such examinations will be kept, and when the same students present themselves the next year they will be credited with the work done at the first examination.
