STVnY PнocпESs
The Faculty expects that students should be capable of at least a fifty per cent success rate in studying for the B.A. degree. Students who do not achieve this will normally be recommended to the Professorial Board for suspension from the course. This will apply to the following classes of students:
Full-time students
(a) Any student failing . to gain at least two passes in the first year of his course;
(b) Any student who, within two years of the commencement of his course, fails to obtain passes in four Grade 1 subjects;
(c) Any, student who, within four years of the commencement of his course, fails to obtain passes in seven subjects;
(d) Any student failing to gain at least one pass in any other year of his course.
Part-time students
The Faculty regards absence from an examination or withdrawal of an examination entry as the equivalent of a failure in the subject concerned. Non- enrolment in any year is treated in a similar way unless leave of absence from the course has been granted.
Evidence to account for failure should be adequately documented. In the event of suspension students are advised to consult the Sub-Dean about suitable prepara-

Graduate Studies (a) M.A. PBELIMINABY
Graduates with the degree of B.A. ( Ord. ) may in some instances be permitted to study for M.A. This requires the passing of a preliminary examination.
The length of time for the М.A. preliminary course varies according to the qualifications of the student in the appropriate school.
In general, departments require that candidates have reached the standard of the B.A. ( Honours) work in that school. Graduates of other faculties may in certain circumstances be admitted to М.A. preliminary courses without completing a B.A.
All intending candidates should consult the appropriate department and also refer to enrolment procedures as indicated on p. 15..
(b) MAsTER of ARTS
Candidates for this degree must either have completed the course for the degree of bachelor of Arts with honours or, after completing the course for the ordinary degree, have pursued further studies for two years ( unless this period be reduced by permission of the faculty in special circumstances ) and have then passed a preliminary examination of the standard of the final examination for the degree with honours.
The examination for the degree is usually in the form of a thesis. Intending М.А. Preliminary and M.A. students should consult the head of the department con- cerned and obtain a special application form from the sub-dean's office. Candidature must be approved by the department concerned and by the faculty before enrolment
will be accepted.
Candidates are rеgqиirеd to enrol and pay fees in each year over which their course extends. Although a student may apply for permission to suspend his course for up to one year, the time over which these courses may extend is ordinarily limited to two years for full-time students and four years for part-time students.
In addition to the schools in which the examination may be taken as listed in the regulation, the faculty of Arts has approved for advanced studies such fields as Indian Studies, Social Studies, Criminology and Music. No candidate can be admitted to the degree of master of Arts unless he is a graduate of at least one year's standing.
The regulation is on p. 25. Details of the examination are printed under the heading of the relevant department.
M.A. Examination
In most departments examination is done by thesis, three (3 ) copies of which must be submitted to Students' Records.
Format of theses:
(i) Generally should be on quarto size paper measuring 1011 in. x 8 in. but, where quarto is not suitable, on foolscap size paper measuring 13 in. x 8 in.
(ii) Sheets should be numbered consecutively and clearly; interpolated sheets should be marked distinctly—e.g. 69(a), or as the case may require.
(iii) Folding diagrams or charts should be arranged so as to open out to the top and right.
(iv) There should be a margin on the left hand side of at least 1 in. uniform on all sheets.
(v) At least one copy, for deposit in the library, must be bound in such a manner that it will stand on the shelf as a book. All copies must have the pages firmly fastened within a cover. Spring-back folders must not be used. (It is recommended that theses be bound by the Melbourne Univer- sity Press.)
(vi) A title page must show the title of the thesis, the degree for which it is submitted, and the full name of the author as well as a statement that the thesis is the candidate's own work and that he has quoted all source material used.
(vii) The name of the author must be on the spine and it is desirable to show there also the title, abbreviated if necessary.
