You will still need to have competitive SAT scores to be considered. I agree with FallenAngel9 about the admissions process being holistic. I think the most important essay in Rice’s application is “What can you bring to Rice?” You will also need to show them that you are interested. Make a campus visit and have an on-campus interview. We came from Ohio and visited in November. I think that made a difference in my son’s application and eventual acceptance.
