ENTRANCE SCHOLARSHIPS

The examination for these scholarships must be taken at the College or at places specified in the catalogue at the June examinations. This examination cannot be divided between preliminaries and finals, nor between the June and September examinations.

COLLEGE SCHOLARSHIPS

Four scholarships of the value of $100 each will be given in the order of rank irrespective of class to those students who attain the highest standing for the year, provided that standing is above 92.

These scholarships will be announced on July 15 of each year, and the amount of such scholarship in excess of credit allowed during the year on any other scholarship will be paid at that time

LOAN FUNDS

THE JOHN H. PEARSON FUND

The Trustees of the John H. Pearson Fund have given to the Trustees of Dartmouth College a certain sum, to be used as a loan fund for the benefit of New Hampshire students who are in Dartmouth College. It has been assumed by them that there are students who would prefer to receive aid through loans rather than through scholarships.

Under the terms of this loan, a student who is in pecuniary need, in place of beneficiary aid, may give his note, subject to the approval of his father, though not calling for his endorsement if the student is a minor. The note shall not bear interest while the student is in College. If extended for four years after graduation it shall bear interest at four per cent; if extended beyond four years it shall bear

interest at six per cent. If a student leaves College without graduation, interest shall begin at once at six per cent.

THE COLLEGE FUND

A similar fund is available (within the limit of $3000) under like conditions for students from outside of New Hampshire.

The rules governing the granting of a loan are the same as those governing the bestowal of beneficiary aid.

Some additional aid is furnished in the way of compensation to those students who are appointed by the Dean as monitors and by the Librarian as assistant librarians.
