How to Receive Benefits
Application Fee Waiver
You must indicate your participation in EdAssist by Bright Horizons within the Pratt School of Engineering application for admission.
You will find a drop-down list of corporate partner programs in your application under the Funding Information page. Please select “Bright Horizons.”
Tuition Scholarship
After enrollment, Bright Horizons EdAssist students must download an EdAssist verification letter and submit it by email each semester to PrattBrightHorizons@duke.edu.
The tuition scholarship will be posted to your account after the tuition bills have been posted.
Please note that changes to your enrolled credits will change the scholarship that you receive each semester. Based on your employer’s policies for tuition assistance, you may be required to pay the entire tuition bill and be reimbursed, or your employer may subsidize your tuition directly with Duke.
Important Notice
It is important you understand these payment policies before your bill is due.
Duke recommends confirming this information with your employer and including that confirmation in your employment verification letter.
Sponsor Billing
Students should provide copies of their bills to sponsors/third parties responsible for paying them.
Sponsor bills will be generated after Drop/Add ends. Government agency/employer sponsors who require a direct bill from Duke must forward sponsor billing information to the Bursar’s Office as soon as possible.
Sponsor billing information is available at finance.duke.edu.
Important Notice
The reduction in tuition from the tuition scholarship is effective for enrollment in future terms and will not be applied retroactively.
