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 will apply for a SLM loan, please see the instructions provided for Sallie Mae.
- The Executive Certificate Program in Financial Planning 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.
- The Workforce Investment Act provides intensive training services to those who have been unable to find employment. Customers are linked to job opportunities in their communities, including both occupational training and training in basic skills. Participants use an “individual training account” to select an appropriate training program from a qualified training provider.
The Duke Executive Certificate in Financial Planning is an approved training provider in Durham County and many other counties across North Carolina. For more information on eligibility, the application process, or to find your local Workforce Development Board, visit the North Carolina State Training Accountability and Reporting System.
