•The Duke Talent Identification Program (Duke TIP) is a gifted
education program based at Duke University.
• Its purpose is to identify gifted children and provide them and their
parents the resources for them to reach their full educational
potential.
•Children are identified in fourth/fifth grade and/or in seventh grade.
In the seventh grade search, students take the SAT or ACT.
•Fourth and fifth graders are qualified in early December.
• To qualify, your Stanford score is as good or better than 95% of the
students taking the test nationwide.
•We see up to 80% of our students at this level qualify for the Duke TIP.
An increase in level of academics in Middle School sees a second level of
honor in the Duke TIP in 7th grade.
More difficult to obtain at this level, qualifiers will:
•Earn a Stanford score as good as or higher than 95% of students taking the
test nationwide;
•Retain Duke TIP status throughout middle school and high school.
•Typically sit for college entrance exams the winter after they qualify and may
sit for the SAT or ACT during 7th grade;
•Begin receiving attention from colleges, invitations to summer programs, and
in the future are more likely to receive scholarship offers.
