<p>Why not look around on the Duke site itself? More direct answers, not so much hearsay:
[Duke</a> Financial Aid | Need-Based Aid](<a href=“Homepage | Karsh Office of Undergraduate Financial Support”>Homepage | Karsh Office of Undergraduate Financial Support)
I have never heard of a college reducing their aid. Duke is very consistent with their aid awards - based on FAFSA (which you renew every year, I’m pretty sure) and the CSS Profile they will give you the amount you NEED, and cap the loans at $5,000 every year.</p>
