Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handbook of British, Continental and Canadian Universities: With Special Mention of the Courses Open to Women The many graduates of Bryn Mawr College who have continued their studies abroad, have strongly felt the need of a handbook defining the position of the different foreign universities in regard to the admission of women to their courses, and giving particulars of the lectures, degrees, entrance requirements, etc., of foreign universities and colleges. Accordingly, in 1896, the Graduate Club of Bryn Mawr College published a Handbook of Courses Open to Women in British, Continental and Canadian Universities containing all the information on the subject which it was possible, in a necessarily limited space of time, to collect. The funds necessary for the purpose were secured through the interest and assistance of the President of Bryn Mawr College. In 1899 it was decided to publish a new edition of the Handbook, and as it was found that practically all European universities and colleges were open to women and that the majority of the facts collected were as valuable to men students as to women students, the title was slightly modified. The information given in the Handbook has been obtained from the authorities of the different universities and collected from the calendars and other official publications. The facts gathered from these different sources have been put together in a condensed form, and it is hoped that the alphabetical arrangement adopted will be found convenient for reference. The attention of women students is called to the work of the Council to Accredit Women for Advanced Work in Foreign Universities, a committee of the Association of Collegiate Alumnae.
