UF (Free ride) versus Rice ($130,000 for 4 yrs)

ED to Rice and RD to UF ended yesterday. Applied to both.

Due to Rice Investment fund (free\reduced tuition), it will be very competitive for RD. Early decision appears to have better acceptance rates. That is debated elsewhere on CC.

For our son, it is Rice or UF. So, we are ED to Rice (find out December) and RD to UF (Jan). There are others for RD, but not really as they are less desirable than UF in quality or comparable cost.
