WIN Empowerment Fund

Open to All Juniors & Seniors With Financial Need

Even the best laid plans run into roadblocks.

Created through the generosity of the Pratt School of Engineering group within the Duke Women’s Impact Network (WIN), this fund ensures that no eligible student misses a career opportunity because of an unexpected expense not covered by financial aid.

Students with the highest financial need, as determined by Duke’s Karsh Office of Undergraduate Financial Support, receive priority.

What’s Covered

We provide support for needs remaining after discounts and waivers. Career maximum of $1,000 per student.

Grad School Prep

We support the purchase of exam preparation materials and fees charged to apply to graduate, professional or medical school.

Travel

Being there makes a difference. We can cover travel expenses that facilitate attendance at interviews, research conferences and qualified professional society meetings.

Attire

Appearance is important. Look the part through funding for suits and similar business dress.
