News: North Carolina high school grads can take two years of classes at Durham Tech tuition-free
Durham Technical Community College announced Tuesday that students who graduated from a North Carolina high school this year or who graduated from a North Carolina high school in 2021 can attend Durham Tech this fall tuition-free. 

The full cost of tuition for eligible 2021 and 2022 North Carolina high school graduates classified as North Carolina residents by the Residency Determination Services (RDS) who enroll for the Fall 2022 semester. Eligibility extends to high school equivalency earners, those who complete an Adult High School diploma, and those who are home-schooled.  

Durham Tech’s tuition-free initiative is a scholarship supplement to the North Carolina Longleaf Commitment Grant, which covers tuition based on family income.

News: 60 for 60: Scholarships shape futures of Durham Tech students, graduates
Scholarships are often the difference between choosing college or not. Students rely on scholarships to alleviate the financial burden of college so they can pursue their academic and professional goals.

The first scholarships offered at Durham Tech were funded by outside organizations who hoped to make college more accessible and affordable.

In 1967, the American Fund for Dental Education provided one of the first scholarships at Durham Tech, providing 11 scholarships ranging from $500 to $2,000.
One year later, nursing students were offered the Crawford-Clark Scholarship that was administered by North Carolina Memorial Hospital.

Businesses like Ford Motor Company, Pilot Club, Alturusa Club, City of Durham, NC Society of Accountant also offered scholarships to Durham Tech students.
By 1982, former president Dr. Phail Wynn, Jr., created the Durham Tech Foundation to manage, develop, and oversee student scholarships.

Chair and CEO of O’Brien Atkins Associates, John Atkins and his wife Sandra Atkins both attended Durham Tech. Together with the President and COO Kevin Montgomery, the firm supported the College by establishing the first internal scholarship with the Foundation.

As Durham natives, the firm wanted to give back locally and invest in students at Durham Tech who were interested in pursuing an architectural career.
