• Everyone Can Afford Duke
  Thanks to new financial aid initiatives from Duke University, parents whose incomes total $60,000 or less no longer have to contribute financially.   In addition, student loans have been eliminated for families whose incomes total $40,000 or less, and significantly reduced for middle-class families.
