<p>Actually, you can check your financial aid right now. It comes with your online acceptance letter. It took me a while to find it, but you have to click on “Respond to Offer”, then the financial aid link is somewhere in the top right hand corner. </p>
<p>My family is in the same income bracket as yours and unfortunately I got poor financial aid. We still have to pay about $49,000 per year. Which is disheartening as I like Duke more than UNC-Chapel Hill but I have a good amount of scholarship money to go to UNC. My parents say that they should be able to support me all four years at Duke but its graduate school that will be a problem. And I have a younger brother who will be in college in 3 years and they’ll have to support him too. Still, I’m crossing my fingers that my dad can try to talk to Duke to give me more financial aid. Even so, I believe you have to apply for financial aid every year so maybe Duke will give me more next year if I go.</p>
