Tuition + Costs

For students beginning their program in July 2026 (Class of 2027), the tuition cost is 87,800 USD.

For information about the billing schedule and due dates for tuition & fees, please visit the University Bursar Office website.

Expenses for attending Fuqua go beyond just your tuition. Here is the estimated Cost of Attendance for MQM: Business Analytics program Class of 2027:
 

NOTE: The established educational supplies and living expenses of this COA are results of a triennial Duke University survey completed by Duke students receiving financial aid (i.e. student loans).  The Financial Aid Office uses the survey results to establish a “student budget” and determine eligible borrowing amounts.                                                 

*Student Medical Insurance Plan is required for all Fuqua MQM:BA students and is charged during the fall semester.  It can be waived if you have other health insurance coverage. Please contact our Financial Aid Office if your Duke-sponsored Student Medical Insurance Plan cost is different from this amount. We will adjust your COA accordingly. The actual cost of the Student Medical Insurance Plan is established in late spring each year.  The University Bursar’s Office provides additional information regarding student medical insurance with fall tuition statements.                                                             

**Course Pack charges are posted to the Bursar account later in the semester, after the tuition and standard fees are charged.  Therefore, students who are expecting a refund from their aid funds (i.e. loans) are encouraged to budget a portion of their refund to eventually pay for their anticipated course pack charges.  Course pack charges vary per course registration.  The figures provided in the above table are estimates.                                                  

***Federal Loan Origination Fees are automatically added to the COA budget for students borrowing the federal Direct Unsubsidized Loan offer. The Department of Education deducts the origination fee from the principal loan amount before disbursement. Therefore, the federal student loan disbursement amount will be less than the offered principal loan amount.

If a private/alternative loan is borrowed, then the federal loan origination fees will be reduced or removed from the COA's eligible student loan borrowing amount.

****The Student Loan Borrowing Limit will be reduced by any other financial aid received (i.e. scholarships, sponsorships, other student loans).  This cost of attendance will determine the total amount of your Financial Aid eligibility.                                                        

Students who are receiving Veterans Benefits may be able to apply for student loans up to the COA (minus scholarship and the school's Yellow Ribbon contribution) in addition to their VA benefit. 

Also, the Department of Education regulations indicate that students who are service members receiving Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) or live in military housing, must have their COA adjusted to exclude the housing component.  This is due to the housing expense already being covered.                                     

Additional Considerations to Increase the Cost of Attendance                                                    

Students must request these additional considerations in writing.

One -Time Computer Increase - Students must submit an invoice or quote for the price of the computer in order to receive this increase up to the 2,000 USD.                                                                                             

Dependent/Childcare Expense may be factored for certified Dependent/Childcare expenses per child.                                   

Please contact our office for details regarding the regulations and documentation required for a Dependent/Childcare allowance.  

One-time travel expense (i.e. airfare):
During the academic year, usually during the winter break, students may return home.
Per the student’s written request, we will consider a one-time cost of attendance increase for travel expense (for the student only), which increases the eligible borrowing amount.

Airfare Expense: Students must submit a copy of their itinerary from any reputable online site showing the departure/arrival dates, destination in your home state (domestic students) or home country (international students) as indicated in DukeHub, and the estimated airfare (up to a 1,000USD cost for domestic flights and 3,000USD for international flights).  We will only consider coach/economy class (not business economy or first class).  

Please note that the loan funds for additional considerations will disburse to your student Bursar account and satisfy any outstanding balance before the University Bursar’s Office (billing office) will issue a refund to you.

Non-Allowable Cost of Attendance Adjustments: Expenses incurred for interview activities coordinated by Fuqua (i.e. Weekend-In-Cities) and general interview trips are not considered for financial aid purposes because they are not standard requirements within the curriculum. Please Note: Due to Federal Law, personal consumer debt (i.e., credit cards, car loans, etc.) cannot be factored into the cost of attendance.
