If you wish to change the school to which you are applying at any time in the application process, you must send a separate letter indicating our desire to change. If you are using the Common Application, please indicate which school you wish to apply to by attaching a note or writing the name of the school on the student portion of the application. All admissions correspondence including notification of your admissions decision will be sent to you at your mailing address. When providing information about your parents, please give information for both of your natural parents unless you have been legally adopted by a stepparent or other guardian. It does not affect the decision of the Admissions Committee , since Duke follows a need-blind admissions policy.
Financial aid is available for U.S. citizens and permanent residents only.
We regret that we cannot offer financial aid to foreign nationals. Therefore, we must require that foreign citizens document the means through which they will finance their education on the Certificate of Financial Responsibility which will be sent to them by the Admissions Office. Ask the person completing the form to return it along with a transcript to the Office of Undergraduate Admissions by the application deadline. If you have attended your current school for one year only, we recommend that you request an additional secondary school report from your former school. We strongly recommend that schools with trimester schedules submit first-term grades with Part 2.
