Belly - GO to the Rice university financial aid website and READ what it says!!!

If we make less than $8K, we will pay later at Rice but with no loan. Correct?

That’s not what it says. It says that if your family makes less than $80,000 they will meet all your “NEED” with no loans. THAT DOES NOT MEAN THAT YOU WILL PAY “LATER” (and what exactly do you mean by that? Pay later?). It means that your family will be expected to make their contribution from earning and assets up to the amount that is determined by Rice, and that you will still need to make your summer earnings contribution and do workstudy. Please -go and read what the website says.
