                <text>THE FRESHMAN YEAR-YALE UNIVERSITY&#13;

( ) 2. Recommended to Sophomore class:&#13;
( ) 3. Recommended to Sophomore class but under “disqualification/’ (see Rule 3, over page), together with any other restriction of privileges prescribed by Sophomore rules.&#13;
( ) 4. Will not be recommended for admission to Sophomore class (i.e., to Group	above)! until entrance conditions are removed.&#13;
Remarks.:&#13;
 &#13;
EXTRACT FROM RULES OF THE FRESHMAN YEAR&#13;
&#13;
3. “Disqualification” prohibits a student from representing his class or any other department of the University in any athletic, musical, or dramatic organization, as officer, member, or substitute, and from engaging in any other organized extra-curriculum activity.&#13;
&#13;
6.	“Term” is one of the two periods into which the year is divided; first term, September-February; second term, February-June.&#13;
&#13;
7.	“Grades,” on the scale of 100, are recorded only in multiples of five. The passing grade is.60. &#13;
&#13;
(Grades returned in June are for the work of the second term only; a failure in the work of the first term is waived only on recommendation of the Head of Instruction in the subject concerned. Notice of, any such recommendation is given over page under “Remarks.”&#13;
&#13;
A general average of 90 or above for the term classifies a student as a Scholar of the First Rank. A general average of 80-89 for the term classifies a student as a Scholar of the Second Rank. Lists of such Scholars are published in the University Bulletin and in the next catalogue of the Freshman Year.&#13;
&#13;
A grade of 90 or above in a given subject classifies a student as a Ranking Scholar in that subject.)&#13;
&#13;
12. To be admitted to full and regular standing in the Sophomore Class a Freshman must pass all of his regular courses and not be under penalty. Any student otherwise entitled to Sophomore rating who (a) has passed less than four of his regular Freshman courses, or (b) who has obtained less than three (3} Quality Credits (one and one-half of which must be secured in the second term), or (c) who goes on general warning in June, will be under penalty of disqualification on entering Sophomore year, together with any other restriction of privileges prescribed by Sophomore rules.&#13;
&#13;
(One and one-half Quality Credits are given for a grade of 75 or above for one term’s work in any regular course. Any Freshman failing to secure at least one and one-half (1-1/2) Quality Credits for his second term’s work, regardless of the number secured for the first term, will be -under disqualification and will be deprived of two-thirds (2/3) of his cut-allowance for the first term of Sophomore year.&#13;
&#13;
Any Freshman failing to secure at least three (3) Quality Credits for the year will also be subject to the same penalty.&#13;
The foregoing Rules are in conformity with a uniform Quality Credit System adopted for the Sheffield Scientific School, Yale College, and Freshman Year, to go into effect with the present Freshman class. Under the system each member of the class of 1925 must secure ten (10) such Quality Credits by the end of Junior Year, and eighteen (18) in order to graduate with his. class. Since all Quality Credits secured at any time count towards the minimum of eighteen (18) required for graduation, it is obvious that students should strive to secure as many as possible from the very beginning.&#13;
&#13;
16.	Warnings are issued in the middle of each term and after each semi-annual examination. A student below 70 in any regular course is warned in that course. A student whose grades are below 60 in two regular courses, or below 65 in three, or below 70 in four, is oh general warning, which involves" disqualification until the next warning period.&#13;
&#13;
14. No Freshman will be recommended for admission to the Sophomore classes until he has removed all entrance conditions.&#13;
&#13;
17.	A student who has had a previous general warning may be dropped at the end of the term if his grades are then below 60 in two of his regular courses.&#13;
&#13;
18.	Any student who has received three successive general warnings may be dropped.&#13;
&#13;
19.	Any student whose scholarship is deemed detrimental to the scholarship of the Freshman class may be dropped from any course or from the class at any time, whether or not his case is covered by the specific rules.&#13;
&#13;
20.	A Freshman who is dropped from the class for scholarship deficiencies may be refused readmission to the Freshman Year. In any case, no student will be readmitted until he has removed all entrance conditions.&#13;
