For the first time, anyone interested in visiting Duke can explore key university buildings and hear from Duke students about life on campus without stepping foot on university grounds.

Duke’s new YouVisit virtual tour launched June 5 and allows people to tour Duke on their computer or smart phone. The experience includes optional commentary from student tour guides, 360-degree photos and videos.

"We know that the campus tour is an essential part of understanding a college, and given Duke’s international reputation we also know that it’s not possible for everyone to visit the campus as they consider applying," said Christoph Guttentag, dean of undergraduate admissions. "This online tour will give thousands of interested students and families the opportunity to get a sense of the places and resources that make Duke special. I’m pleased that we’ll be able to review and make modifications to the tour in the future, to take advantage of the changes still coming on campus."

“It’s a great opportunity to showcase the beauty of Duke’s campus and our vibrant academic environment on a digital platform,” said Blyth Morrell, Duke’s director of digital and strategic communications. “It also offers people from around the world an opportunity to visit Duke without leaving their desks.”

The tour takes visitors through Duke’s iconic West Campus including stops at the Duke University Chapel, the new 70,000 square-foot Duke Student Wellness Center and Wallace Wade Stadium. The tour also explores Duke’s East Campus, which is where freshmen will spend a majority of their first year. Prospective students will get a feel for the student experience by touring residence halls, libraries and dining locations.

Creating the tour was a partnership between Duke’s Office of News and Communications and Duke Admissions.

Visit or Virtual Tour

Individual visits.

To protect the health and safety of our campus and local communities, all visitors to Duke are strongly encouraged to be fully vaccinated for COVID-19 prior to coming to campus . Visitors should also comply with Duke’s health and safety standards and guidelines and follow direction provided by campus personnel while visiting. For the continued care and safety of our community, we ask that you refrain from visiting campus if you are not feeling well or test positive for COVID-19.

As masking requirements are subject to change and some locations may require a mask in specific locations based on specific circumstances, students, employees and visitors should carry a mask and be prepared to wear it, if needed. Masking is one of the most effective ways to protect yourself and others, especially in indoor settings. Please continue to respect an individual’s decision to wear a mask even if it is not required.

Duke University Virtual Tour

Are you applying to duke university explore the campus using the virtual tour below..

Virtual tours are a great way to refresh your memory or to preview an on-site tour of Duke.

Do I Really Need to Take a Tour?

At the beginning of your college search, a virtual tour can be a beneficial tool to explore the campus before your visit. When you do visit the campus, be sure to talk to current students about their experiences. A student perspective is a helpful way to gauge your future experience when attending Duke University. Already took an on-campus tour? It's inevitable. All of your college tours will blend, and you might forget the appearance of Duke's library, dorms, or cafeteria. Use the virtual tour to jog your memory! With the interactive mapping tool below you can even explore the area surrounding the campus.

Use the resources below to start your virtual tour.

Using the Map

Click and drag the little orange person to a location on the map. Locations with panoramas appear as blue lines or blue dots when moving the orange person. The blue dots are panoramic views that you may swivel. The blue lines are paths that you can navigate along.

Panoramic View

You can "pan" or "swivel" the camera around by clicking on the image and dragging your mouse or finger. If you see a white arrow on the picture, you can click or tap on it to move in the direction of the arrow. This will also update the location of the little orange person on the map so you can get a better sense of where you are and what direction you are facing.

REGISTRATION

How do I register?

Go to your Choose Duke! portal . You’ll see links to register for each program. Note that the AAPI Showcase, Pride, and DukeLIFE Dinners are featured on the Blue Devil Days registration page.

When should I register?

Register as soon as possible as space is limited for some programs/dates. Please do not make travel plans until you have registered to attend and have received a registration confirmation.

If I register for one program must I register for others I plan to attend?

For students who wish to attend BSAI, LSRW, or NAISI, you must register separately even if you register for another program.

LSRW attendees do not need to register for Blue Devil Days on April 19 because some of the Blue Devil Days programming is built into the LSRW agenda.

You can register for DukeLIFE, AAPI Showcase, and PRIDE on the Blue Devil Days registration form. Most events will be the same for each Blue Devil Day event.

The date I want to attend is full. What can I do?

Due to limited capacity in our event venues we are required to limit attendance for each program. Please choose another date or program.  

If you cannot visit us for an admitted student event but plan to visit campus Monday – Friday in April, please email us  in advance if campus tours are full so that we may accommodate you. Visitors may download the Duke Admissions Tour app, now available for  iPhone  and  Android  users.

May students attend any program?

Yes! While some are designed to introduce you to specific communities at Duke, anyone interested in those communities is welcome to attend. Please note that AAPI Showcase, Pride, and DukeLIFE Dinners are held during Blue Devil Days. BSAI, LSRW, and NAISI are stand-alone programs and are reserved for students only.  

Who else may attend the events?

Admitted students are invited to attend any events. Families are welcome to attend any program that is not designated as students-only. Due to limited capacity, each student will be able to register no more than two guests for Blue Devil Days.

I have questions about my need-based financial aid package. Whom should I contact?

Check out this FAQ or email [email protected] .

How do I know if I’m eligible for a merit scholarship?

Duke is proud to offer merit scholarships to incoming first-year students. These scholarships cover the cost of tuition, mandatory fees, room, and board for four years of full-time undergraduate studies. There is not a separate application for these scholarships, except for the Robertson Scholars Program .

All students who apply to Duke are automatically considered for  merit scholarships . Matriculated students who are finalists for merit scholarships will be notified in early May. Please note that some merit scholarships require that the applicant show financial need, and that means that in order to be considered for them, you’ll need to complete your financial aid application before the application deadline.

HOW DO I SEND FINAL TEST SCORES?

Send us your official test scores no later than May 15, 2024. Duke’s test codes are 5156 (SAT) and 3088 (ACT). If you received an application fee waiver, we will accept scores from your counselor in place of official scores.

Test-optional students may skip this step.

HOW DO I SEND MY FINAL SCHOOL REPORT?

We will accept Final School Reports through the Common or Coalition Application or submitted by counselors/school officials via email .

WHAT CREDIT CAN I GET FOR AP AND IB COURSES?

Duke University awards a limited amount of course credit and advanced placement on the basis of scores earned on Advanced Placement (AP), International Baccalaureate (IB) and pre-matriculation college course work. However, course credit and advanced placement are not granted until the student has been admitted and until the official reports are received and evaluated by our Registrar’s Office. Since this process is handled outside the Admissions Office, a credit evaluation cannot be made until the student arrives on campus. For more information, visit admissions.duke.edu/college-prep .

Can you provide any information about student visas?

We will process I-20s as usual in the hope that international students will be able to secure visas and enter the United States.

My (AP/IB/A level and other national exams) have been cancelled. How will Duke assess my academic performance?

For admissions purposes, we will accept final school reports in lieu of these exams. Pass/fail grades are fine. We do not yet know about any changes for placement or credit.

If my family’s financial situation has changed and I will now need financial aid in order to attend Duke. Is there a process for this?

We are not able to offer need-based aid to foreign citizens unless they indicated they were seeking aid in their admissions applications. For those students eligible for need-based aid, we continue to be committed to meeting full demonstrated need for all four years of their undergraduate education, even if the amount of that need changes while students are at Duke. If you have questions about your financial aid award, please contact Duke’s Office of Undergraduate Financial Support via email at [email protected] .

DOES DUKE HAVE A "GAP YEAR" OR DEFERRED ENROLLMENT POLICY?

As you prepare for college, you may want to explore other interests such as personal and professional development, religious or mission work, travel, or required military service. If your gap year, or “deferred enrollment,” is approved and you adhere to the gap year conditions, we hold your place in the following year’s class. Students who defer their enrollment are expected to enroll at Duke at the end of their gap year.

Duke offers two options for students who plan to defer their enrollment: the Duke Gap Year Program , a selective program that offers community and the possibility of funding to support eligible gap year experiences, and independent gap years.

Note: In general, Duke students do a one-year gap, but depending on the request, we can approve up to two years.

To request a gap year/deferred enrollment:

• Enroll at Duke University through your student portal (no deposit required).
• Apply to the Duke Gap Year Program or request an independent gap year on your student portal. The forms will open in the spring.

If you choose to defer enrollment via the Duke Gap Year Program or independently, you must accept the following conditions:

• You will not apply for admission as a degree-seeking student to any other college or university during your gap year.
• Trinity College treats PMC credits equivalent to Advanced Placement (AP) and International Placement (IP) credits. Typically, up to two total AP/IP/PMC credits count toward the 34 courses Trinity students must take to graduate from Duke.
• You can learn more about PMC credits for Pratt students on the Pratt website .
• You will not hold a place, conditional or otherwise, at any other college or university during the remainder of this academic year or during the coming academic year.
• You will not enroll in a post-graduate program at a secondary school.
• You will abide by both the Conditions of Application and the conditions mentioned in your letter of admission. We expect you to maintain high standards of academic performance and personal behavior in and out of school, which includes abiding by our  Community Standard . If there is any change in the information in your application—including any academic, personal, disciplinary, or legal matters—you must contact the admissions office within 48 hours.

You can learn more about gap year options on our website .

WHAT IS THE DUKE GAP YEAR PROGRAM?

Students who wish to participate in Duke’s intentional gap year community are invited to apply to the Duke Gap Year Program. Applicants to the DGYP may request between $5,000 and $15,000 in funding to support eligible gap year experiences. DGYP participants must adhere to the gap year conditions and fulfill a few other requirements, including but not limited to contributions to the DGYP blog and Instagram account. Applications open in the spring.

Remember: if you do not apply or are not admitted to the DGYP, you can still request an independent gap year on your student portal.

Visiting International Student Program

• VIS Overview

VIS OVERVIEW

Study at duke university for a semester or a year as a non-degree student.

The Visiting International Student (VIS) Program is an opportunity for foreign-national students enrolled at universities outside the U.S. to study at Duke University for a fall semester or a full academic year. The program is designed for undergraduate students, usually in their second or third year of studies, who have a thorough knowledge of the English language.

Students admitted to the Visiting International Student (VIS) Program may study at Duke for a period of one fall semester or one academic year (two semesters at four months each), but cannot extend the term or transfer into the four-year degree program at Duke.

ELIGIBILITY

Applicants should be full-time students of a university or college based outside the U.S.

View  Admissions Requirements

For Duke Kunshan University students interested in studying at Duke, please contact the Duke Kunshan University Global Education Office  [email protected] .

VIS participants join regular Duke University undergraduates in the Trinity College of Arts and Sciences or Pratt College of Engineering of Duke University as non-degree students. While at Duke, Visiting International Students are treated as full-time Duke students, taking classes and examinations as home students do.

Visiting International Students may take up to four academic courses, plus one to two non-academic courses (e.g. physical education or house course) per semester.

VIS participants are limited to undergraduate courses and may not take classes in Duke's graduate level professional schools such as Fuqua School of Business, the Law School, the Medical School, etc.

Students will only be able to enroll in university courses taught on the Duke campus in Durham, North Carolina, during the academic year.

Undergraduate Experience

From academics to student activities, from research opportunities to campus support services, there's a lot to discover about what life is like as a Duke undergraduate student.

Duke’s remarkable reputation brought many intellectuals and successful people to campus, and gave me the chance to talk to people I didn't even dream of meeting.”

HOUSING & MEALS

Students admitted to the Undergraduate Visiting International Student Program or as an undergraduate exchange student will be housed on West Campus in double rooms, or suites. Housing will be arranged by university administrators based on preferences indicated by the student once accepted.

Whenever possible, VIS students will be assigned roommates who are not VIS program participants. This gives VIS students a chance to meet local Duke students and better connect to the campus culture.

Housing sign-up: Admitted Visiting International Students will be sent special instructions on how to sign up for university assignments and early move-in. Please do not attempt to sign up for university housing outside of the specific VIS instructions.

Meals Plans

Students in university housing are required to purchase meal plans. Visit dining.duke.edu  for more information.

Overall expenses will vary and depend somewhat upon a student's individual needs, but all VIS students pay standard Duke tuition and fees. 

Review VIS Program Costs

Student Visas

Duke University requires applicants to the Visiting International Student Program to complete a preliminary visa application. The Duke Global Education Office for Undergraduates will facilitate access to Duke's visa application for qualified applicants. Once a student is accepted and committed to Duke's Undergraduate Visiting International Student Program, Duke's Visa Services Office will provide the student with proper documentation to obtain a student visa for study at Duke.

To obtain a visa for study in the United States, a foreign national must furnish their country's United States consulate with proof of their ability to meet educational expenses. The foreign national should not plan to work in the United States since one's ability to pay must be based upon resources available at the time of application. A certificate of eligibility (DS-2019) for a visa application will be issued only to foreign nationals who have been accepted, paid reservation fees, and provided sufficient financial documentation.

Currently, VIS can only obtain the J-1 visa from Duke.  Duke is no longer authorized to sponsor the short term F-1 visa . All Visiting International Students must be sponsored under the J-1 visa category ( https://visaservices.duke.edu/visa-categories/j-1-visa-classification/ ). Incoming students must have at least part of their funding coming from non-family sources (government sponsorship, private scholarship, home institution scholarship, etc.) to qualify for the J-1 visa.

Bank of America Gift to Nasher Museum Saves Painting from “Dustbin of History”

Elizabeth murray masterpiece restored after 45 years.

Bank of America has committed $100,000 to the Nasher Museum of Art at Duke University to restore a masterpiece by the late artist Elizabeth Murray.

Murray was part of a generation of abstract painters in New York City during the 1970s and ‘80s that was experimenting with a new formal language. Her painting Bob , after a yearlong conservation effort, will be on public view at the Nasher Museum for the first time in 45 years.

“We believe we saved this painting from the dustbin of history,” said Marshall N. Price, Ph.D., Chief Curator and Nancy A. Nasher and David J. Haemisegger Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art. “It had been out of the public eye for a very long time. We have a chance to give it a second life.”

The Bank of America grant will support major conservation work in consultation with the Elizabeth Murray Foundation. The artist created Bob in 1977 as an homage to her friend Robert Moskowitz. The painting was shown by Paula Cooper Gallery until 1978, when Burroughs Welcome Pharmaceutical Co. bought it and installed it at the company’s Research Triangle Park Headquarters. Bob was hidden from public view for 40 years.

Bob was instrumental in Murray’s pursuit of a nuanced visual language and exemplifies the experimental nature of post-Minimal abstraction, Price said.

“It is a major work by Murray from a period that was so crucial to her development,” Price said. “It preceded the shaped canvases that she’s probably best known for, but Bob also has the hallmarks of a post-minimal language she was developing in the mid and late 1970s.”

The Nasher Museum acquired the painting in 2021 from United Therapeutics, Corp., which discovered Bob after moving onto the former Burroughs Welcome campus. The museum will produce a mini documentary about the rediscovery of the painting and the process of returning it to its original state.

“The Nasher Museum is most grateful to Bank of America for supporting the conservation of this important early work by a pioneering artist,” Trevor Schoonmaker, Mary D.B.T. and James H. Semans Director, Nasher Museum. “It’s very exciting to bring Murray’s painting back into the public eye after so many years, making it accessible for the first time to visitors and scholars alike.”

2024 Catalyst Fund to Support Innovative Projects in Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion

The Duke University School of Medicine Office of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion has announced the recipients of the Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Catalyst Fund . The  fund provides resources for innovative projects, interventions, and programs in equity, diversity, and inclusion that have the potential to scale or translate into broader School of Medicine initiatives. A total of seven projects were selected, each of which will receive funding for a 12-month period.

The projects selected as winners of the 2024 EDI Catalyst Fund are:

• “Administrative Support Staff Professional Development Pilot Program,” project directors: Pamela Keels; Julius Wilder, MD, PhD; and Camille Fulbright. Collaborators: Rodney Reeves; Lowell Tyler; and Erica Taylor, MD.
• “Association of Women Surgeons Mentorship Pods,” project director: Gayle DiLalla, MD. Collaborators: Hana Shafique, MS2; Alexandria Soto, MS3; Dana Rowe, MS3; Shannon Barter, PGY-3.
• “Developing and Implementing an Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) Education in Obstetrics and Gynecology: EVOLVE EDI Education,” project directors: Latoya Patterson, MD, MPH; and Sarahn Wheeler, MD, MHS. Collaborators: SirTauria Hilliard; and Monica Vallier.
• “Developing a Pediatric Justice League: Using Restorative Justice Practices to Improve Workplace Culture in the Department of Pediatrics,” project director: Sydney Allgood. Collaborators: Kathleen Bartlett, MD; Catherine Hart, M.Ed.; and Jasmine Willis-Wallace, Ed.D., MS.
• “Honoring Diversity and Catalyzing Belonging through Inclusive Communications,” project directors: Susan Gallagher; and Lindsay Gordon-Faranda. Collaborators: Jamie Botta; Jessica Bronchick; Rosie Canizares; Bernadette Gillis; Lynn Labuda; Beverly Murphy; Abby Parcell; Cara August; Stephanie Lopez; Valerie Marino; Minerva Matos-Garner; Andy Medlin; Sarah Morrison; and Natalie Sayewich.
• “Increasing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusive Excellence in Faculty Searches: A Toolkit for Educators and Leaders,” project directors: Rachel Porter, PhD, MEd; and Quincy Jones, MSW, MHS, PA-C. Collaborators: Gary Johnson, PT, DPT, ATC/L; Jean Mesaros, PharmD; Linwood Webb; and Jacquetta Melvin, MPH, PA-C.
• “Advancing Unit-level Climate & EDI through Collaboration within the Duke University School of Medicine,” project directors: Michael Fern, PhD; and Monica Elam. Collaborators: Amy Porter-Tacoronte; Beth Glasscock; Lowell Tyler; Michelle Smith; Robin Famiglietti; and Willette Wilkins.

The projects were chosen based on their potential for positive impact in one or several areas, including strategies that enhance the climate of inclusion and belonging and strategies that infuse equity and inclusion in recruitment, retention, and promotion of faculty and staff.

“These initiatives represent ambitious and innovative strategies with strong potential for advancing our shared goals in equity, diversity, and inclusion,” said Kevin Thomas, MD, vice dean for equity, diversity, and inclusion. “Collaboration across units enhances the potential for these initiatives to expand and evolve.”

The Office of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion launched the EDI Catalyst Fund earlier this year. Staff and faculty in School of Medicine were invited to submit requests for proposal for the award.

The funding period for the Catalyst Fund is from April 2024 to April 2025.
