TUFTS COLLEGE.

ELMER H. CAPEN, D.D., PRESIDENT.

The COLLEGE is situated on a beautiful eminence four miles from Boston, combining the advantages of country and city. It offers to the student in all its departments the best methods of instruction and the various facilities requisite for a thorough education, at a very moderate cost.

It was the first New England college to accept advanced French or German as equivalent for Greek in a course leading to the degree of A.B., and to offer the student so entering a full course in the Greek language.

A new departure is the award of the bachelor's degree on the basis of attainment instead of the number of years spent in college. Great freedom of election is permitted in the new courses, which provide both for general culture and for specialization in a chosen subject and its related studies.

REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION.

COURSES IN LIBERAL ARTS.

Two groups of requirements admit to the course leading to the degree of Bachelor of Arts. The first includes Latin Grammar, four books of Cæsar, seven orations of Cicero, six books of Virgil, 2500 lines of the Metamorphoses of Ovid, and Latin Composition; Greek Grammar, four books of Xenophon's Anabasis, three books of Homer's Iliad, and Greek Composition; elementary German or French; Arithmetic, Algebra, and Plane Geometry; History, Ancient, with Mediæval and Modern, or that of England and the United States; English Grammar and Composition.

Candidates entering under the second group of requirements substitute advanced German or advanced French for the Greek requirements, and must offer an elementary preparation, in French, if advanced German is offered, in German, if advanced French.

Two groups of requirements admit to the course leading to the degree of Bachelor of Philosophy. The first of these includes Latin, Mathematics, History, and English, as above; with intermediate German and elementary French, or intermediate French and elementary German.

The second group is made up of Mathematics, History, and English, as in the first, with advanced German and elementary French, or advanced French and elementary German, or intermediate French and intermediate German; Physics, Chemistry, and Natural History. This group is intended to meet the preparation of graduates of the best English high schools, who desire to take a college course.
