Under a Statute passed by Convocation November 10, 1875, the Delegates of Local Examinations are charged to hold every year an Examination by which the attainments of women may be tested. For the purposes of this Examination the Delegates have the same powers and are charged with the same duties as those which have been assigned to them in respect of the Examination of younger persons.

The First Examination was held in March, 1877.
