Radcuffe College, the successor of the Society for the Collegiate 

 Instruction of Women, ofifers systematic collegiate instruction to women 

 under the professors and other teachers of Harvard University. The 

 instruction is of the same grade as that given in Harvard College. More 

 than seventy instructors of the University are teachers in Radcliffe College. 



Fay House contains recitation rooms and offices, and a select working 

 library. The College has four laboratories, of Physics, Chemistry, Botany, 

 and Zoology. The collections of the Agassiz Museum of Con^parative 

 Zoology, the Peabody Museum of American Archaeology, the University 

 Museums of Geology, Botany, and Mineralogy, and the Semitic Museum, 

 are also open to the students ; and, by vote of the President and Fellows of 

 Harvard College, the students have the use of the University Library, con- 

 taining 400,000 volumes. . Opportunities for study in the Astronomical 

 Observatory, the Botanic Garden, and the Herbarium are also afforded. 



The requirements for admission are identical with those for admission 

 to Harvard College. The courses of instruction given in Radcliffe College 

 correspond to both "undergraduate" and "graduate" courses offered by 

 Harvard University, and are more than sufficient to enable a woman to 

 perform the work required by the University for the degrees of A. B. and 

 A. M. In addition to these. Graduate Students in Radcliffe College have 

 access to a large number of Graduate courses in Harvard University. The 

 examinations are the same in both institutions, and the diplomas conferring 

 the degrees of A. B. and A. M. are countersigned by the President of 

 Harvard University, as a guarantee that these degrees are equivalent to 

 the corresponding degrees given by the University. 



Special students of mature age, who show that they are prepared for 

 College work in any department, may be admitted on recommendation of 

 the Academic Board, without formal preliminary examinations, and certifi- 

 cates are awarded them for the work which they accomplish. 



The Society issues annually a List of Elective Courses of Study and 

 an Annual Report. ~ Monographs prepared by the students are also issued 

 at irregular intervals. These documents, and detailed information as to 

 admission requirements, instruction, and expenses, and descriptions of the 

 work of the departments, may be had by addressing
