Duke University Undergraduate Requirements

You would need to submit English-translated versions of all your high-school and Class 12th completion certificates. Though the university does not have a specific GPA requirement, an equivalent of 75% is needed, along with a solid non-academic portfolio. Valid scores in tests like the SAT or the ACT are also accepted, while some courses may also need you to submit essays and clear a personal interview round. An overall IELTS score of 7, or a TOEFL-iBT score of 100, is good enough to prove your English proficiency.

Duke University Graduate Requirements

For PG courses, you should have completed a 4-year UG degree from a recognized Indian college or university. If you don't have a 4-year UG degree, you would have to get it evaluated by a third-party service like WES. You would also need to submit a Life Experiences Statement, while some courses also require a valid GRE score.
