Rice financial aid guarantees 100% financial need. Of course, this is their perception of a student's need and isn't an exact science, so paying can still be tough. Room and Board seem overpriced compared to off-campus rent.

Rice does come at a hefty sum, but most of our public transportation is free, the campus always looks beautiful, the professors that are hired are there because they know what they are doing and plan to be knowledgeable resources, and Rice covers a lot of the costs of fun activities such as picnics, admission to sporting events, and shows off campus.
