Tuition Assistance Program Expands July 1

The Employee Tuition Assistance Program provides reimbursement of tuition for eligible classes taken at Duke or any other higher educational institution accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools with a physical presence in North Carolina.

This program provides reimbursement of tuition for a maximum of three classes per semester or quarter (limit nine classes per calendar year) up to $5,250 per calendar year for full-time team members with at least two years of continuous full-time service.

Effective July 1, 2023, Duke will expand this popular program in the following ways:

1) The service eligibility requirement will be reduced from two consecutive years of full-time employment to six months of full-time employment.

2) Eligible institutions will no longer need to have a physical presence in North Carolina. Duke will expand the accredited institutions to outside the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. Only programs in the U.S. are eligible.

3) One semester of Ph.D. research will now be reimbursed.

Why Duke Health as a New Graduate

When did you join Duke Health?

I started as a COVID screener/PPE observer/patient attendant safety aide with us in March of 2020 while I was still in nursing school. I later transitioned to a registered nurse role in June 2021 after graduating from Duke in May 2021.

What attracted you to apply to Duke Health upon graduation?

There were several reasons I applied to Duke. It actually ended being the only place I applied to as a new grad. Duke is really the only place I could see myself starting my nursing career at.

First of all, I am comfortable here at Duke and this was one of the most important aspects when I was looking. I was comfortable enough at Duke to challenge myself and start establishing my newly formed career goals that recently had changed in nursing school.

Lastly, Duke’s focus on innovation was the ultimate driving force for my decision to apply here. I think it’d be extremely difficult for any other healthcare system to compete with the amount of programs and resources that Duke offers to support innovation, and I really just didn’t want to miss out on any of those opportunities.

My experience so far at Duke in one word it would be opportunity. There’s an incredible amount of resources and opportunities here at Duke. They have essentially paved the path. With the amount of support that Duke provides they make it nearly impossible for you to not succeed here. — Kimberly Coston, RN, Clinical Nurse II, Duke University Hospital
