scholar and his parents’ means. Generally, this is only possible in the case of scholars 
already in residence. 
IV. No; but privately many scholars (and undergraduates who are not scholars) 
receive assistance from the College or the Tutor. 
V. (a) No, by the conditions: ‘Candidates are required to state the value (usually 
minimum) which they are prepared to accept, and are bound to accept any offer 
of the value they state.’ 
(b) Whether any scholars have ever retired for this reason I do not know; there 
has been no recent instance. 
(c) The College sometimes gives assistance to scholars and others.

I. Number variable of Scholarships and Exhibitions. At present 24 in residence, 
besides 6 Sizars and 4 Subsizars. Scholarships are of 401. to 801. ; Exhibitions gene- 
rally of 30/.; tenure of both for two years, after which they may be prolonged and 
increased if the holders prove of sufficient merit. Sizarships are worth about 34l. 
and Subsizarships consist in the reduction of certain fixed charges, and admission to 
certain privileges at a given fixed charge. 
II. A Scholarship or Exhibition is tenable with a Sizarship or Subsizarship, or 
with a ‘ private Exhibition ’ of 25/. (see IV.). 
If. No. 
IV. (1) Trusts amounting to about 120]. per annum from which small benefac- 
tions are made annually to poor and deserving students. 
(2) Ordinands Fund of 50/. from which grants of 10/. are made to candidates for 
ordination requiring assistance. 
(3) A private Exhibition Fund, providing 12 Exhibitions a year of 25/.; but 
in no case do we provide for the complete maintenance of students. 
V. (a) Occasionally ; but it seldom, if ever, happens that a candidate of real 
ability is obliged to decline an emolument on such grounds, as they are generally 
able to get additional help by means of School, or County Council, or City Company 
Exhibitions. 
(6) No, not to my knowledge. 
PEMBROKE COLLEGE, CAMBRIDGE.

(c) Private liberality has never failed. 
St. Prtrer’s CoLttEGE, CAMBRIDGE. 
II. No; but grants in aid may be made from a fund for deserving students, 
but no grant would be made to an 80/. Scholar. 
IV. Two private funds for deserving students administered by the Tutor with 
the cognisance of the Master; and a fund for the encouragement of research from 
which grants are made to students after graduation. No funds for complete main- 
tenance of a student of exceptional promise. 
V. (a) Cases may have occurred. 
(6) I cannot remember any case. 
SeLwyn CoLiecn, CAMBRIDGE. 
If. The endowed Scholarships may be supplemented from the Exhibition Fund 
if the scholar is regarded as reaching a higher standard, but two benefactions cannot 
be held together. 
IIT. No limit. 
IV. No. 
V. (a) ‘ Yes, from time to time. Now and then it has been possible to interest 
private individuals to come to the rescue before or after the candidate comes into 
residence ; but the College has no means at its disposal! for the purpose.’ 
VI. ‘I should suggest that local authorities should be prepared to subsist all 
candidates from their area which have reached the requisite standard in an open 
competition, instead of making their support dependent on a further competition 
for a limited number of local Exhibitions.’
