one year longer. -
A bursary must be held continuously, except in case of illness or
special circumstances approved by the Director. -
A Home Science and Domestic Arts Bursary shall not be tenable

National Scholarship, or any other scholarship, exhibition, or bursary or
combination thereof, which may have been granted for the purpose of
assisting the holder in obtaining university education, and the value or
combined value of which (exclusive of any lodging-allowances received)
exceeds £20 per annum. -
(a.) A bursary awarded under these regulations shall be of the annual
value of £20, in addition to an amount towards the tuition fees approved

as the case may be; provided that, except in special cases approved by
the Director, not more than one year's fees shall be payable with respect
to any subject at the same grade.

to live away from her home or her usual place of residence in order to carry
out the required course of instruction she shall, in addition to the amount
of the bursary and the fees as aforesaid, receive a further allowance at the
rate of £30 per annum, provided that the arrangements made in respect
of the holder's board and residence shall first be approved by the Council.

Unless the Chairman of the Professorial Board, by report at the end
of each year, shows to the satisfaction of the Director that the holder of a
bursary under these regulations has regularly attended the classes in the
said Home Science and Domestic Arts course, and has made satisfactory
progress in the work of those classes, the bursary shall forthwith be deter-
mined, unless it is shown to the satisfaction of the Director that any failure
in attendance, diligence, or progress was due to illness or other sufficient
cause; and on such determination the holder shall, if the Director so
requires, refund the allowances and fees paid on her behalf. -
On receipt of an unfavourable report from the Chairman of the Pro-
fessorial Board on the attendance, diligence, or progress of the holder of
a bursary, the Director may at any time determine the tenure of the bursary,
and the holder thereof shall, if the Director so requires, refund the allow-
ances and fees paid on her behalf. -
Generally the conditions that require to be fulfilled before the
holder of a bursary can be considered as having made satisfactory progress
shall include the passing of the college examinations in the subject or sub-
jects of the Home Science and Domestic Arts course taken by the holder,
or the passing of a section of the examination for the degree or diploma in
Home Science and Domestic Arts. -
These regulations shall not apply in the case of bursaries heretofore
awarded, but such bursaries shall continue to be governed by the regulations
under which they were awarded.
