10 The Umversity of Kansas

CREDITS

The maximum amount of credit obtained during the term is eight hours,
but students whose previous records are not of sufficiently high standard will
be refused the maximum enrollment.

ADVANCED STANDING

Summer Session students entering the University for the first time, who
have credit for work done elsewhere which they wish to transfer for advanced
standing toward a degree at the University, should have complete official tran-
scripts of records, including a letter of honorable dismissal from the institu-
tion last attended, together with a certificate of high-school credits, sent to
the secretary of the Advanced Standing Committee at least thirty days before
the opening of the session, in order that proper evaluations of their credits
may be made and their standing determined in time for matriculation.
Careful observance of this regulation will save valuable time.

SPECIAL STUDENTS

Summer Session students who do not plan to apply for a degree from this
University, and who wish to do summer work with other objects in view, will,
upon declaration of that fact, be admitted as unclassified or special Summer
Session students in accordance with the rules and regulations governing the
admission of special students. Students now enrolled in other institutions who
wish to enroll in the Summer Session of this University must present a state-
ment from the dean or president of the institution last attended that they are
in good standing. Such students may not subsequently apply Summer Ses-
sion credits toward a degree except by special action of the faculty con-
cerned.

ELEMENTARY SCHOOL CERTIFICATE

The State Board of Education, in the summer of 1937, issued regulations
for elementary school certificates based on the completion of a sixty-hour
curriculum.

It is planned to offer a part of the courses required by the state board for
this certificate during the Summer Session of 1941. Students desiring these
courses, if not previously matriculated in the University, will be registered as
special students in the School of Education. Credit so earned will be certified
to the State Board of Education to meet certification requirements and may
later be transferred to the specific school or college in which the student may
finally elect to complete his college course. A considerable part of the work
may be applied toward degrees at the University, depending upon the require-
ments of the particular school in which the student elects to complete his work.

As stated in the preceding paragraph, application of such credit toward
a degree requires special action of the faculty concerned.

All persons interested in these proposed special courses are invited to ask
for a copy of the special circular issued by the Summer Session concerning
this problem. Address the Director of the Summer Session, University of
Kansas, Lawrence.

GRADUATE CREDITS

Graduate students may receive a maximum credit of eight hours during the
Summer Session. This means that it is possible to satisfy in four summers the
minimum requirements of thirty hours’ graduate work in residence for the
master’s degree. However, the candidate for the master’s degree is strongly
advised to spend at least one semester of a regular school year in residence at
the University. _

Under the regulations of the Graduate Faculty credit in graduate courses
completed more than six years before the general examination for the master’s
degree, must be validated by special examination if used to meet part of the
requirements for the degree.

All courses in order to be accepted towards a higher degree must be ap-
proved in advance by the dean of the Graduate School and by the representa-
