Contact Admissions

You will find contact information for the admissions officers below. If you would like to reach someone else at Duke, you can call Duke University Information at (919) 684-8111.

Each admissions officer is responsible for a region of the country or the world. If you have a specific question for your regional officer, please feel free to contact him or her. (Your regional officer is based on the location of the school that you attend, not your home address.) Please do not send material or application requests to your regional admissions officer. If you’d like to receive information about Duke, including a viewbook and application, click here.
