Does the Rachel Carson program cover tuition, room, or board?
No. Students who participate in the Rachel Carson Scholars program are responsible for tuition, room & board, and all other fees associated with study at the Duke Marine Lab. Several additional sources of funding are available including RA positions, and summer tuition scholarships that cover one summer term. Please check the financial assistance section of our website for more information. Participation in the Rachel Carson Scholars program does not impact students pre-existing financial aid awards.
