At Merton, accounts are paid three times a year. There is a fixed limit of expenditure (2s. per diem for dinner, exclusive of the buttery charge for bread, cheese, and beer; £6 per Term for everything which is supplied from the kitchen, exclusive of dinners): groceries may be obtained in College.

At Exeter, accounts are paid three times a year. Any member of the College who resides in Oxford for seven or more nights in any Term will be liable to half the establishment charges of that Term, and any member who resides for twenty-one nights will be liable to the whole. Groceries and dessert may be obtained in College from the Commonroom man. There is a fixed limit of expenditure.

At Oriel, accounts are paid four times a year; but the account for the Michaelmas quarter, which covers the Long Vacation, is of trifling

amount.

At Queen's, accounts are paid three times a year. Battel-bills are sent to all residents weekly, and the notice of the Dean is called to any in which the amount exceeds a certain sum. A list of the charges made in the kitchen (which, with the regular charge for dinner in hall, vary with the market prices) is drawn out from time to time, and each resident is furnished with a copy. Those who dine in hall ordinarily pay a fixed charge, but in any Term at the beginning of which not less than twentyfour persons give notice to the Bursar or Manciple of their wish to dine off commons, and so to reserve to themselves the power of regulating still further the cost of their dinner, tables are set apart for them. A

tariff of commons is put up in hall at the beginning of each Term. Groceries may be procured from the buttery at a fixed tariff. There is a fixed limit for breakfasts and luncheons.

At Lincoln, accounts are paid three times a year. Any Undergraduate whose weekly bill exceeds a certain amount cannot obtain anything more from the kitchen or buttery without special leave from the Bursar. Groceries may be obtained in College from the Common-room man.

At Jesus, accounts are paid three times a year.

At Wadham, accounts are paid three times a year. The weekly expenses in the buttery and kitchen ought not to exceed £1 IOS. a week, and it is quite possible for an Undergraduate to live for considerably less. Expenditure much exceeding this sum is not permitted.

At Pembroke, accounts are paid four times a year.

At Worcester, accounts are paid three times a year. Kitchen charges are regulated by a printed tariff, and there is a limit of expenditure as to such charges which cannot be exceeded without special leave.

Under a Statute passed in May 1881, each Student is placed in the charge of a Tutor appointed by the Delegates. The Tutors are allowed to charge a fee for each course of Lectures, but such fee is not, in any case, to exceed £1 10s. per course. Students should reckon on having to pay for their tuition about £3 a term.
