What fuels your passion for Rice? For me, that spark comes from the current Owl students I meet, who seem to be more impressive each year. I’m inspired by Tessa, Akin, Maryam and Alex. These young Owls are blazing new trails in research labs, residential colleges, athletics courts and throughout Houston.

Now one of the nation’s most generous financial aid programs, The Rice Investment honors our university’s legacy of investing in students of all backgrounds by providing lower- and middle-income students with varying levels of scholarships and grant aid to defray the cost of attendance.
