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 and Graduate PLUS Loan offer. The Department of Education deducts these origination fees 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 for Students: Up to a 13,948 USD allowance 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.
