My dear Mr. Ungvary:
I have your letter of the 28th ult. Perhaps it will be well for the sake of future reference to have on file from you a regular scholarship application blank, and I am enclosing one herewith.
You are right in inferring that we shall be lenient with you so far as entrance examinations requirements are concerned. I do not think you need to worry about these, though it will be good practice for you to take them. The Italian now here, to whom you refer, had only just come to this country, and was wholly unfamiliar with the work and methods of American schools. This distinguishes his case from yours, but I am convinced by the nature of your earlier reports that the entrance requirements here will cause you little difficulty.
I am glad to hear that your friend, Mr. Wu, will probably enter the Academy with you. I hope you will both come to feel the interest in and loyalty to the place that most of our boys are accustomed to feel.
Very sincerely yours.
