Rice VISION 2023

No Vision invite but I hope that’s because I’m in Texas and already visited the campus.

don’t worry @anonymous522083 My sister was accepted a couple years ago with a 29 ACT.

And @T20hopeful2023: I’m from Texas too, though, I haven’t visited the campus.

Congratulations to all invited to VISION. The invitations came out a little later this year than in years past. That is probably because Rice received a record 27,000 applications and admissions was swamped. The VISION invite goes out to a very small number of ethnically diverse applicants for a fly in weekend at Rice. Not getting an invitation to VISION does not mean you will not be admitted to Rice. These threads from last few years may be helpful. http://talk.qa.collegeconfidential.com/rice-university/2045909-rice-vision-2022-p1.html

Congrats! @joaco59

thanks @Arnkim

No invites for Asians?

The Vision program is aimed mostly at African American, Hispanic, and other ethnicity students who are not represented at Rice in as high a number as Asians (26%) and Caucasians (33%). Many of Rice’s international students (12%) are Asian. However, as seen in the post below, Asians are invited to Vision. https://oir.rice.edu/students-scholars/enrollment/enrollment-demographics

Asian American here, and I was invited to join Rice for Vision. The email says the program is directed to “ethically diverse students”, not specifically URM. I know this doesn’t guarantee admissions or anything, but I’m still thankful for a chance to tour the beautiful campus and meet new people!

Asian Male here! Was also invited for Rice Vision and I am super excited!

Congrats ya’ll!! @tentimeshappier @PandaCanFly

Does anybody know when the flight information will be received?

Asian here, not invited for Vision. Does it mean I have less chance?

No.The Vision invitations are sent to a very small number of applicants.

@raptorial
I got my itinerary by email yesterday. Expect it soon.

Yeah, I also got mine yesterday.

@Arnkim @Raptorial Hey the itinerary y’all are talking about is just flights, correct? Not a list of classes or events while at Rice?

Oh, I guess I should say I was invited. I am super excited for the program and to meet future 2023 peers and everyone at Rice already!
