GENERAL  STATEMENT 

Through  extension  work  in  Harrisburg  and  through  evening  and  Satur- 
day classes  held  at  the  College  in  Annville,  Lebanon  Valley  College  has  en- 
deavored, for  a  number  of  years,  to  make  it  possible  for  teachers  and  others 
who  could  not  attend  regular  college  sessions,  to  obtain  college  credit  and 
secure  a  college  degree. 

On  account  of  the  success  of  these  classes,  the  College  is  offering  an  in- 
creased number  of  courses  in  Harrisburg  and  at  Annville  for  the  academic 
year  I937-I938. 

The  courses  offered  in  extension,  Saturday  and  evening  classes  are  pri- 
marily for  those  engaged  in  teaching  and  for  those  proceeding  toward  a  degree. 
During  the  past  few  j^ears  an  increasing  number  of  registered  nurses  and 
State  employees  have  registered  for  the  courses.  All  courses  will  be  taught  by 
members  of  the  College  faculty,  and  will  be  of  college  grade.  The  credits 
earned  by  High  School  or  Normal  School  graduates  in  these  courses  will  be 
counted  by  Lebanon  Valley  College  toward  its  Baccalaureate  degrees.  A  cer- 
tificate will  be  issued  to  persons  who  are  not  graduates  of  a  standard  High 
School  or  its  equivalent,  provided  the  work  is  satisfactorily  completed. 

Courses  taken  at  the  College  count  toward  residence  requirements  for  a 
degree. 


FEES 

A  fee  of  one  dollar  will  be  charged  for  matriculation.  The  tuition  charge 
for  Extension  and  Saturday  and  Evening  Courses  will  be  $8.00  for 
each  semester  hour  of  credit.  A  special  tuition  fee  of  $5.00  per  semester  hour 
will  be  charged  persons  who  desire  to  take  any  of  the  courses  as  auditor, 
without  examination  and  without  credit. 

Fees  for  the  first  semester  are  due  and  payable  on  or  before  October  15, 
and  for  the  second  semester  on  or  before  February  15.  Remittances  should
