Duke raises $308 million for financial aid

Bookmark and Share

A fundraising initiative to raise money for financial aid at Duke University has netted $308 million, according to a news release from the university.

The $308 million appears to be the final take from the initiative, which began in 2005 and will establish 478 new scholarships and fellowships.

If this news seems a bit stale, you may be recalling Duke's announcement of just two months ago. That was when the university announced the initiative had topped the $300 million mark.

Apparently, it had just a bit more fundraising to go.
