Duke Economics is committed to helping students defray the cost of graduate study through tuition waivers based on need and merit. We also seek to provide valuable learning opportunities to our master's students employed as research assistants, teaching assistants, graders, and research support staff.

We offer the following to eligible students:

Awards are based on need, merit, and other criteria. Information about application for tuition assistance awards will be sent following the admission offer. For up-to-date information please refer to the Financial Assistance section on our Prospective Students webpage.
