CERTIFICATES Severn School is accredited by the Department of Education of the State of Maryland, and by the United States Naval Academy and the United States Military Academy. The School issues certificates of graduation to students who satis- factorily complete the college preparatory course. Special certificates for admission to college or to the Service acad- emies are issued to qualified students. Before such certificates will be issued the student must have given evidence that he is thoroughly equipped to pursue successfully the course he has in mind. A bad con- duct record, a tendency to do as little as possible and just squeeze through, or general inaptitude for the course in mind will be con- sidered suilicient cause for withholding a certificate.

Among the institutions entered by students from Sevem are the Naval Academy, West Point, Coast Guard Academy, Dartmouth, Cornell, Brown, Amherst, Williams, Wesleyan, Rensselaer Poly- technic, Nlassachusetts Institute of Technology, Tufts, Yale, Prince- ton, Lehigh, Lafayette, Pennsylvania State, University of Pennsyl- vania, Iohns Hopkins, University of Maryland, St. Johns, Univer- sity of Virginia, University of North Carolina, Georgia Institute of Technology, University of Arkansas, Stanford and California Institute of Technology. 18
