Who is eligible?
- Seniors are encouraged to submit their part-time request as soon as possible during - but not before - the term that precedes their final term of enrollment at Duke. This will increase the likelihood of an accurate first-billing statement and avoid possibly needing to return funds to the university.
- Students enrolled in 3.0 or more credits at the end of the drop/add period will be charged full-time tuition.
- Students enrolled part-time will not be able to take courses using the interinstitutional agreement.
*IMPORTANT*:
- As a part-time student, you must enroll in at least 1 course credit but fewer than 3.0 course credits.
- A course that is audited is included in the maximum of 2.75 course credits allowed.
- If part-time, you retain access to all university resources and amenities. However, housing is not guaranteed and may be denied. And there could be financial aid implications.
- Discuss your eligibility for housing with Housing, Dining and Residence Life (HDRL) and the financial aid implications with your financial aid officer.
- Part-time students are charged tuition on a per credit basis. There is information on tuition costs in the Undergraduate Bulletin, under Financial Information. Or you may call the Bursar's Office and ask for current tuition fees for part-time status.
- To discuss your eligibility for part-time status, confer with your academic dean.
To apply for part-time status in your last semester at Duke, complete the online form and submit it to your academic dean as soon as possible, or by the end of drop/add in your last semester of enrollment.
