 and giving assistance in such cases as are referred to in V. (a) (6) (c). 



Selwy;n College, Cambridge. 



II. 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. 



III. No hmit. 



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 who 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.' 



GiBTON College, Cambridge. 



I. Foundation Scholarships : 1 of 801. for four years, 1 of 44?., 3 of 401., 1 of at 

 least 301., 1 of about 161. 



City Companies' Scholarships : 3 of 601. ; Clothworkers' Company (one awarded 

 annually) ; (Skinners' Company), one of 50Z. 



One Gilchrist Scholarship of 501. awarded annually, tenable here or at Newnham 

 College. 



Exhibitions : 1 of 301. from Queen's College, Chester ; 1 of 20?. from St. Leonard's 

 School, St. Andrew's. 



All the above, except the first, are tenable for three years ; and except the Cloth- 

 workers and Gilchrist are awarded only every three years. Besides these, the College 

 awards College Scholarships and Exhibitions each year. 



II. Students are not allowed to hold more than one Scholarship awarded by the 

 College. No regulations are laid down with regard to Leaving or County Council 

 Scholarships, which a student may hold apart from the College. 



IV. Scholarships or Exhibitions have sometimes been augmented privately, 

 and also in some cases the Council has granted augmentation from College Funds. 



V. I do not know of any. 



Newnham College, Cambridge. 



I. 5 Scholarships of SOL for three years and 2 of 351., tenable for three years ; 

 1 of 501., tenable for two or three years, and another of 501., tenable here or at 

 Girton College for three years ; 1 of 1001. for first year's students, tenable for three 

 years ; 1 of 401. for one year for third-year students. A number of small grants, 

 generally of 151., tenable with or without Scholarships ; 5 grants of 51. for books to 

 students. AH but one of above Scholarships are awarded annually. 



II. Only as stated above. 

 IIL No hmit. 



IV. A Loan Fund, from which as much as 30Z. a year may be borrowed for three 

 years. No other permanent endowment, though help may be given as stated above 

 by means of the grants and Loan Fund and from private sources. 



V. (a) No such cases. 

 (6) I beheve not. 



(c) Such resignations would be met by help from the grants and Loan Fund. 

 By means of these a student holding the smallest of our Scholarships, one of 351., 

 could make it up to 80Z. (our fees are 90?.) with 15?. grant and 36?. loan. As a rule, 

 however, we find that the students most in need of help have school Scholarships, 

 and that their families are able to give them a little help. 



University College, London. 



I. 44 Scholarships, varying from 10?. to 150?. ; tenure varying from one to three 

 years — ■' in two cases this may be raised to five.' Two Exhibitions of 57?. 15s., tenable 

 for three years ; 2 Bursaries of about 16?., tenable for two years.
