<p>I’m a gay high school junior, hoping to apply to Rice, and I’ve done A LOT of research on whether it was gay friendly or not. From what I’ve learned the people are extremely accepting, and there is little discrimination. Only bad part is that since the school is smaller, there are less gays, but still, ~3000 students, 1500 of your gender, if 5%-10% are gay that leaves 75-150 students that you’d have to choose from. Putting that in perspective, that’s bigger than my entire grade at the school I go to. Also, if you plan on going to a school that’s a similar size to Rice, you’ll have the same experience in regards to number so it shouldn’t matter. Good Luck :)</p>
