Expanding access. Investing in opportunity.
Beginning in fall 2027, the expanded Rice Investment will provide free tuition for students from families earning up to $200,000 annually, making a Rice University education more accessible to talented students from a wider range of backgrounds.
This expansion positions Rice among the nation's leaders in access and affordability and reflects our longstanding belief that exceptional talent should never be limited by financial circumstances.
