You are worth the investment

Several independent sources—including U.S. News and World Report and Washington Monthly—all rank Duquesne as a best value university. The value of a Duquesne University education includes a horizon-expanding education, world-class faculty and countless opportunities only available to Duquesne students. Ask any graduating Duquesne senior how they feel about the next step in their lives and you'll hear the same answer: "Prepared."  We'll make sure you graduate with the education, experience, and networks you need to accomplish your goals.

We invest $90 million in our undergraduate students each year through University-based scholarships, and total aid from all sources exceeds $195 million.

We are invested in making quality education accessible. Schedule a financial planning conversation with our financial aid team or your admission counselor to learn more.
