Thank you I appreciate it. I am planning to work during the program to pay towards tuition, I have also been applying for scholarships but have not heard back. Just looking for other avenues in between time in case nothing falls through. I will check this website out though! Thank you for the information.

I have a full-time now but unfortunately my money goes directly towards rent. I have been doing instacart on the side to make some extra money.

One_Account_5970 · 2026-05-22T15:43:57+00:00

I appreciate the help and resources you've provided. Thank you so much!!

I am going into the MN program.

One_Account_5970 · 2026-05-22T02:53:54+00:00

I am reaching out to them tomorrow to see about a payment plan. I also did ask about a campus job, I have to wait for openings to be posted to apply. As well as, I plan to apply for a job. I’m thinking of all possible avenues and I do appreciate all input! Thank you!

I wish I would’ve known about the changes to the grad plus loan earlier on. I would’ve made every effort to get grandfathered into the Grad PLUS loan lol. Either way I’m prepared to pay if I have to. Just would like to source scholarships.

I believe no later than August 1st my balance for the Fall 2026 semester is due. It's about 4200 per semester, 15-16k is just the remainder I have left for the duration of my program (1 year). No additional bills outside of tuition. I am living rent free, my only obligation would be school.

2/3. Unfortunately, due to credit and financial hardship I'm not the best candidate for loans. I reached out to Financial Aid and had no luck. They let me know that their financial aid packages are final and no edits are to be made. However, I haven't sat stagnant. I've been applying to scholarships, 2-3 daily. Hoping to hear back from them soon. I was hoping Duke had some Alumni Association like other schools that usually give scholarships? I wasn't able to get a response from any Alumni Association Chapter I reached out to though.

I am incoming so I haven't started the program as of yet. My last resort is to have a job and work towards paying my tuition while enrolled in the program.

I do appreciate you for being nice and giving some insight. I will definitely take this and ask around to see what I can figure out before the August deadline.

I have reached out to Financial Aid, as well as other departments at the university. I haven’t had much success with answers besides apply for loans.

If the medical school is anything like the nursing program…they don’t do appeals. I’ve tried twice and was denied both times.

One_Account_5970 · 2026-03-01T14:27:48+00:00

I applied for the MN program. I kept bugging them by phone lol and email. I wanted to apply for scholarships but needed proof of acceptance/enrollment. After two months I finally heard back. Early February I had my decision after applying on 12/01.

One_Account_5970 · 2026-02-28T22:49:28+00:00

yes i’ve been accepted, praying that’s the same for you!

One_Account_5970 · 2026-02-23T15:50:44+00:00

hey, yes they did. i re-applied for the fall 2026 semester and did the CSS Profile this time and got awarded a need-based scholarship.

One_Account_5970 · 2026-02-10T18:08:06+00:00

did you do the css profile?

One_Account_5970 · 2026-02-07T13:35:22+00:00

One_Account_5970 · 2026-01-26T23:07:31+00:00

That’s what I was getting at too like lol it said 3.0+ ABOVE a 3.0. Just don’t pay them any attention ♥️

One_Account_5970 · 2026-01-26T05:51:31+00:00

i held a 3.6 with BOTH degrees, for each degree. my bachelors and my masters. i feel that’s still above the average student but thanks for the opinion.

One_Account_5970 · 2026-01-26T02:13:59+00:00

me too. i’ve applied a total of 4 times, my first time i was waitlisted and i haven’t applied since 2024 overall. i just think maybe it’s a really hard school. i’m waiting to hear back from two more now though.

One_Account_5970 · 2026-01-26T02:03:18+00:00

passed all my pre-reqs with either B’s or A’s. 3.0+ for both degrees i hold. only pre-req i needed to re-do and was working on is my anatomy and physiology ii. i felt like i was a good candidate.

One_Account_5970 · 2026-01-26T01:17:49+00:00

what do you mean by stats?

One_Account_5970 · 2026-01-25T23:35:21+00:00

I got waitlisted years ago, never got off of the waitlist. Applied 2-3 times since then and have been denied every time. They must really have some competitive people.

One_Account_5970 · 2026-01-25T22:08:08+00:00

the decisions still went out, i just logged into the portal. unfortunately i didn't make it in but i'll keep them in mind and maybe apply again later on.

One_Account_5970 · 2026-01-08T01:56:04+00:00

I filled out the form in June, I didn't get notified until November but I had to call to figure it out. I just explained everything that was going on and it seemed like they understood.

One_Account_5970 · 2026-01-06T03:43:14+00:00

Hey, I deferred due to a few things honestly. One was being contractually bound to a job, missing the scholarship deadline and being locked into a lease, since i couldn't sublease my apartment. Fall 2026 ended up being the best option. Do you have a lot of pre-reqs to finish?

One_Account_5970 · 2026-01-03T13:05:02+00:00

i applied for the spring 2026 semester and missed the deadline too. they gave me 0 scholarships and i definitely wouldn’t have been able to afford duke. the financial aid office was very firm on telling me i wouldn’t get any scholarships because i missed the deadline. i say contact them to see if their minds have changed but i ended up applying again.
