Summary Statement of Student Lending Principles

Duke University has established a set of publicly available principles and policies to govern educational lending practices for undergraduate, graduate and professional students.  These principles emphasize that lending practices proceed from a commitment to the best interests of our students, that we support students' right to choose their lenders and that neither Duke nor its employees accept financial payments, goods or services of material value from lenders.  All employees involved in financial aid and student lending are subject to a rigorous conflict of interest policy. Administrators may serve as unpaid members of lender advisory boards in order to help shape the products and services that will best meet the needs of our students; in such cases, Duke pays all costs associated with that service.
