 ORIGIN, PURPOSES, AND ACCREDITATION
The University of Kentucky, a state-supported institution, is located
at Lexington, an urban community of about 75,000 population. The Board
of Trustees includes the Governor, the Superintendent of Public Instruc-
tion, and the Commissioner of Agriculture, ex officio, and twelve members
appointed by the Governor, three of whom are alumni of the University
and three, members of the State Board of Agriculture. The University is
one of a number of institutions known as land-grant colleges, which were
established by the Morrill Act of 1862 and which have continued to receive .
federal assistance under the provisions of this and subsequent laws re-
lating to the teaching of agriculture and the mechanic arts and the pro-
vision of agricultural experiment stations and extension services in agri-
culture and home economics.
The University of Kentucky began as a part of Kentucky University V
under a cooperative plan authorized by the legislature in 1865. The purpose
of this plan was to unite sectarian and public education under one organi- (
zation. This experiment was tried for a number of years. In the meantime,
the federal funds authorized under the Morrill Act were used to develop
agriculture and mechanic arts in Kentucky University. In 1878, when the
people of Kentucky decided to establish a state institution of higher learn-
ing, the College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts was separated from
Kentucky University and reestablished on land given by the City of Lex-
ington and the County of Fayette. Thirty years later the legislature changed
the name of the institution to the State University of Kentucky, and gave
it additional financial support. In 1916 the name was again changed, this
time to the present title, and additional maintenance was arranged by
legislative act.
The major function of the University is that of instruction. For the
performance of this function it is organized into the College of Arts and
Sciences, the College of Agriculture and Home Economics, the College of
Engineering, the College of Law, the College of Education, the College of
Commerce, the College of Pharmacy, the Graduate School, and the Depart-
ment of University Extension.
In addition to giving instruction to its student body, the University
contributes to the welfare of the state through research, experimentation, -
and public service. While all departments make important contributions
along these lines, certain divisions and bureaus have been established spe-
cifically for these purposes. Included in this group are the Experiment
Station and the Extension Division of the College of Agriculture and Home
Economics, the Bureau of Business Research, the Bureau of Government
Research, the Bureau of School Service, the Bureau of Source Materials in
Higher Education, the Teachers Placement Bureau, the Radio Studios, the K
Department of University Extension, the Department of Public Relations,
the Engineering Experiment Station, the Child Guidance Service, the
Family Life Institute, the Industrial Psychological Service, and the Social
Research Consultation Service.
The University of Kentucky is a member of the Southern Association
Of Colleges and Secondary Schools and the Kentucky Association of Colleges
and Secondary Schools. It is accredited in its respective colleges or depart-

The s
ADMISSION TO THE UNIVERSITY batio:
Students are admitted to the University of Kentucky as freshmen, as  
students with advanced standing from other institutions, as graduate stu- rl
dents, as special students, and as auditors. Admission to certain colleges COMES
is governed by special regulations. Of th,
Applications for admission to the University should be made to the A
Registrar on forms furnished by the Registrar’s Office. Certified copies of prese
high school credentials and of work done in other institutions should be imivs
submitted to the Registrar’s Office in advance of the registration period. I
Failure to file credentials in time for checking before the registration period of a
will delay the student in arranging his program. All admissions, including the s
those to the professional schools and the Graduate School must be passed from
on by the Registrar’s Office. Students who come to the University without speci
having their admission approved, do so at their own risk. The University (
reserves the right to refuse consideration of applications not made before adva
the beginning of the registration period. The University classification tests all pi
must be taken by new undergraduate students before they can be registered of tr
for classes. l
Admission to the Freshman Class Sum
Applicants who are graduates of accredited high schools will be admit-
ted to the University on certincate, provided they have at least fifteen units ,
of acceptable high school work. A unit represents the study of any subject as a
for a school year of at least thirty—two weeks, with five recitation periods 3 pmt
week, each of at least forty-five minutes in length, or the equivalent thereof. least
Double periods are required in shop, drawing, typewriting, and all other E
courses which demand no out—of·class preparation. One unit is the mini- have
mum credit accepted in any foreign language, and one-half unit the mini- in 0,
mum in any other subject. g
While the University does not prescribe a pattern of work for admis-
sion, it recommends that at least ten of the units presented be chosen from 1
English, the social studies, mathematics, the foreign languages, and the
laboratory sciences, and that within these ten units the student offer at
least three units in English, one and one··half in algebra, and one in plane the
geometry. Should a student lack these courses as prerequisites for any of
his college work, he will be required to take them in college without credit,
thus delaying his graduation.
Applicants who have graduated from unaccredited high schools and ore
those not graduated from high school may be admitted as freshmen if, in appl
addition to presenting the fifteen acceptable units, they successfully pass ao:
_ the University classification examinations. mm

 GENERAL 1NFOR1v1AT10N 15
ocia- Admission to the University does not necessa1·ily qualify a student for
nools admission to a particular college. In every case the student must meet the
the admission requirements of the college in which he is to enroll.
Pro-
As- Admission to Advanced Standing
ni Of Kentucky Students. A resident of Kentucky who applies for admission
·mm· with advanced standing is expected to present evidence that he is in good
the standing in every respect in the institution last attended. He should have
maintained a standing of 1.0 or an average of C in all previous college work.
The student whose standing is below 1.0, however, may be admitted on pro-
bation if after taking the University classification tests such an admission
seems warranted. In no case shall a student be admitted whose record is ·
“· as such that he would have been dropped at the University of Kentucky.
Stu` The University does not disregard at any time or under any conditions
leges eollege or university records in order to admit applicants solely on the basis
of their high school records.
> the A transfer student is allowed only as many advanced credits as he can V
es of present quality points. Otherwise, work done at a fully accredited college or
id be university is recognized credit for credit. (
zriod. In order to be classified as fully accredited, a college must be a member
eriod of a regional accrediting association or it must be on the approved list of
iding the state university of the state in which it is located. Advanced standing
assed from an unaccredited college may be obtained at the University only by
thout special subject examinations.
arsity Out-of-State Students. A non—resident who applies for admission with
lefore advanced standing must in all cases have maintained a standing of 1.0 in
tests all previous college work. In other respects, the requirements and conditions
tered of transfer are the same as for Kentucky students.
Written applications for admission with advanced standing should be
submitted to the Registrar’s Office on forms furnished by that office.

lb-im as a special student. Any other person may be admitted as a special student
ods a provided he is fully prepared to do the work desired and provided he is as

mml' have his status changed to that of a regular student. This may be done _
mm? in one of two ways:
1. Satisfying the entrance requirements for admission to the freshman
dmis- class.
from 2. Completing in residence sixty-seven credits with a standing of at
