considered as professional schools ; a condition of entrance is the passing of the Matriculation Examination, and attendance at some at least of the courses at the University colleges is compulsory, even for those students who do not take the full course for a degree. Further, on each Board of Advice of a training college one member is a representative of the Professorial Board of the University College, and the Principal of the Training College is, in every case, the professor or lecturer in education at the University college. Including the training colleges, and counting the professional schools as distinct from the affiliated institutions, we may say that there are in New Zealand fourteen public institutions for higher or professional education. [In addition, there are certain other institutions for professional education which are endowed private y or otherwise, and are chiefly concerned with the training of theological students, many of whom also appear on the books of the affiliated institutions.] At the four colleges of the University there were in all 1,493 students attending lectures during the year 1908 —namely, 888 men and 605 women ; of these, 1-,162 (698 men and 464 women) were matriculated students, graduates or undergraduates, and the rest were unmatriculated. The full numbers at the several colleges are given in Table M, which also shows the number of exempted students—that is, students who are prevented by the necessity of earning their living or by distance from a college from attending lectures, and are allowed to keep terms, except in certain science and professional subjects, by passing the annual college examination.
