Loans:

  • Some students choose to use a continuing education loan to finance the cost of the program including tuition, books, and equipment. Duke Continuing Studies does not endorse any lending program as the best source. Loans are approved at variable rates based on your credit history. Interest rates and fees vary by lender and, unlike federal loans, interest rates are not capped. If you wish to apply for a TERI or SLM loan, please see the instructions provided for TERI or Sallie Mae.
  • The Duke Paralegal Certificate Program is non-credit and therefore NOT eligible for federal education loans. Please do not submit FAFSA forms for this program.
  • Your local bank may offer other options for loans or a “line of credit” service. Contact your bank for more information on financing choices.
