TIP Option: Independent Registration

The Talent Identification Program at Duke University allows students to join the Duke TIP family, even if they are unable to participate in our annual 7th Grade Talent Search. This independent registration method is called TIP Option. You must meet at least one of the following criteria to register through TIP Option:

  • Seventh graders who want to be involved with Duke TIP but do not qualify for the 7th Grade Talent Search;
  • Seventh graders who qualify for the 7th Grade Talent Search but missed the deadline or test dates;
  • Students in grades 7, 8, or 9 living outside the Duke TIP 16-state Talent Search Region;
  • Students in grades 8 and 9 who want to take the SAT or ACT and report their scores to Duke TIP and receive mailings.
