New tuition and financial aid policies!

Tuition for the 2008-09 freshman class will be $29,960. One of the nation’s most highly regarded comprehensive research universities, Rice has consistently kept tuition thousands of dollars below that of our peer institutions. 

Furthermore, Rice will increase both need-based and merit-based financial aid offerings. For families whose income is $60,000 or less, Rice will meet 100% of need eligibility without student loans. In addition, we will increase merit aid so that more families from all income levels will find Rice to be the best choice for undergraduate education in the country.

For many years, Rice has been recognized as one of the top values in higher education by US News & World Report, the Princeton Review, and Time. What’s new at other elite universities is tradition at Rice. Join an experienced community of diverse scholars. Be decisive, choose Rice.
