<p>Does Rice have an arts requirement to graduate?</p>
<p>I'm curious in regards to how AP/IB credit would factor in.</p>
<p>Thank you so much!</p>
<p>Rice has distribution requirements - see [General</a> Announcements](<a href=“http://ga.rice.edu/UG_graduation/]General”>http://ga.rice.edu/UG_graduation/) </p>
<p>So you could take some courses in the arts in order to complete some of the required 12 hours in the group 1 distribution category. If you were a science or engineering major and wanted to use AP Credit to reduce your group 1 distribution requirement, looks like you want to take AP Latin: Vergil, or AP Music Theory or AP Spanish Language AP Spanish Lit - see [AP</a> Credit | Office of the Registrar | Rice University](<a href=“http://registrar.rice.edu/students/ap_credit/]AP”>Advanced Placement (AP) Credit | Office of the Registrar | Rice University)</p>
