Duke To Provide Full Tuition To North And South Carolina Students With Family Incomes Below $150,000

Duke anticipates investing an additional $6 million to $7 million per year to provide increased assistance for the added eligible students they expect to admit from the Carolinas. The institutional grants used to meet the commitment will be in coordination with other sources of support, including federal, state and institutional aid. The total will cover the cost of Duke tuition, which is $63,450 for the 2023-2024 academic year.
“We know that students with greater financial constraints are more likely to choose colleges that are closer to their homes and that many of those students will also choose to stay closer to home after they graduate,” Bennett said. “Retaining talent is critical to our region’s success; Duke’s commitment to these students is also a commitment to the North and South Carolina communities they call home.”
