Duke University to Provide More Financial Aid and Lower Loans

Duke University joins a growing group of colleges and universities that are giving out more financial aid in the form of grants and decreasing loans in their financial aid packages.

Students with family incomes below $40,000 will be able to graduate debt free. Those families below $60,000 will have the parental contributions eliminated, though the students may still need to accept loans as part of their financial aid.

Even students with family incomes up to $100,000 will have loans reduced and those eligible families over $100,000 will have their loan amounts capped.

These changes are expected to begin in September, 2008, and it will affect all current students, not just those starting in September.
