SESSIONS. There is but one session in the Seminary year. The year com- mences on the 1st of October, and ends on the 1st of June. ADMISSION, The regular time for admission to the Seminary is in October. It is very desirable that all Students should be present at the commencement of the year, particularly those entering the Junior Class. The Seminary is open to Students of every denomination. Can- didates for admission must furnish the Faculty with satisfactory testimonials, from enlightened and pious persons, of their talents, piety and prudence, of having been regularly educated at some College or University, or of having made attainments deemed equivalent, and of being in full communion with some Christian Church. Such persons, on assenting to the Constitution of the Seminary, are admitted to the enjoyment of all its privileges. ~2f~>2>& ;-: CATALOGUE. 21 COURSE OF STUDIES.

One of its instructors, whose vernactdar is the Arabic, and who is minutely and critically skilled in Hebrew and the cognate dialects, who speaks and writes them with fluency and ease, has a choice collection of Oriental works ; the Library of the South Caro- lina College is particularly rich in them, and the Library of the Seminary is as well furnished with them as most of the public ^^-3^^^ t 22 CATALOGUE.
