Show 28 WEBER COLLEGE - OGDEN, UTAH Weber College admits students classified as follows: (1) Matriculated Students for Transfer Curricula, (2) Unmatriculated Students for Transfer Curricula, and (3) Matriculated Students for Terminal Curricula. Matriculated Students for Transfer Curricula A matriculated student for transfer curricula must present fifteen units of approved high school work. Ten of the units must be in the basic fields, including three units of English, one in algebra, one in the natural sciences, and one in the social sciences. The remaining four basic units must be taken from English, speech, mathematics, natural sciences, social sciences, and the foreign languages. To meet the war emergency and to facilitate the accelerated program, entrance requirements have been modified to admit some high school students who have completed their junior year. In order to be admitted under this provision, a student must meet the above requirements, and in addition, must have an average grade of B and must have the recommendation of his high school principal. In addition to the above requirements, a student majoring in engineering should include in the total units, one-half unit of advanced algebra, one-half unit of solid geometry, and one-half unit of trigonometry. When a student has fifteen units of high school work but is deficient in one or more of the specified units, he will be required to make up that deficiency before he is graduated. Unmatriculated Students for Transfer Curricula A student nineteen years of age or older who is deficient either in the number of high school credits or in the distribution of credits required of matriculated students may register as an unmatriculated student provided: (a) his registration is limited to courses which his previous training or ability justifies, and (b) his deficiencies are removed before he becomes a candidate for graduation. An unmatriculated student may at any time attain the status of a regular matriculated student by satisfying all matriculation requirements. He may receive college standing by completing ten quarter hours of college work for each high school unit in which he is deficient, or by passing written entrance examinations. Matriculated Students for Terminal Curricula A matriculated student for terminal curricula must present fifteen units of high school work or must have attained the age of eighteen years. If a terminal student does not present fifteen units of high school credit, a recommendation from the principal of the high school he last attended must be submitted, providing the student has been in attendance at a high school within one year preceding the time of application for admission to Weber College. During the period of the war emergency, certain exceptions to the above requirements may be made, subject to the agreement of the high school principal and the President of Weber College. A terminal student is not preparing for higher degrees. He pursues a terminal course and at the completion of this work receives a Certificate of Completion in the field wherein his specific requirements have been met. These requirements may not satisfy the entrance requirements of the higher institutions of the State. WEBER COLLEGE - OGDEN, UTAH_29 Selective Admission to Trades and Distributive Education A student is admitted to the Trade and Distributive Education Courses on a selective basis. The school reserves the right to reject any applicant who does not propose to use the training for entry into employment, or who is not occupationally qualified, or who cannot profit by the training. To enroll in these courses the student must satisfy the entrance requirements, and receive the approval of the instructor and the coordinator concerned. If the class is filled at the time application is made, the applicant for enrollment will be placed on the waiting list and will be notified when there is a vacancy for which he might qualify. There is no certain period when an entire class in the trades is graduated and another group is started. Students may enter a class at any time during the school year when there is a vacancy. These vacancies occur when students complete their units of training or are placed on a job. Those on the waiting list will be notified when there are opportunities to enter the class. Numbering of Courses Courses numbered from 1 to 49 inclusive allow college transfer credit. Courses numbered 50 and above allow terminal credit. Terminal courses are offered for junior college credit only and are accepted by Weber College toward graduation of the terminal student. These courses may not be accepted at full value by the higher institutions of learning. Moral Character In order to be admitted to Weber College in any of the above classifications, a student must be of good moral character. A student who has been dropped from any high school or college on account of poor scholarship, or unsatifactory conduct, or who is on probation at another institution may not register at Weber College without first appealing to the Sandards Committee for entrance. This Committee will be guided by the recommendation of the institution from which such a student transfers.
