Registered by the Regents A Regents School ENTRAL City Business: School has met all the requirements and is regularly registered by the Regents of the University of the State of New York. The object of this registration is to raise the standard of business education and to enable the public to discriminate more readily between small, inefficient schools and those having ample facilities for giving a thorough business training. Advantages of Registration l The following are some of the' advantages of the registered business school as set forth by the State Education Department: An annual inspection by a representative of the New York State Education Department who will cooperate in every legitimate way to help the registered commercial schools.

Central City holds Regents examinations regularly in January and June every year in tl1e various sub- jects of its curriculum. Optional, Not Compulsory h While this ist a registered school, the Regents examinations are optional, not compulsory.
