Rice University is a mid-sized, private college located in the heart of Houston. Rice has strong community traditions in each of its residential colleges.

Rice students love the beer bike race every April, the water balloon fight on the lawn, homecoming, designing parade floats, and the Sallyport tradition.

Rice students can request accommodations through the SDRC and work with a Student Support Specialist to identify appropriate accommodations.

Accommodations are academic adjustments, resources, and/or equipment that allow a Rice student with a disability to have equal access to academic programs and to fully participate in the Rice University community.
