Our faculty pushes boundaries, challenges conventions, and is redefining online learning for students who think the same way. If you’re a high school junior or senior, or a visiting undergraduate, our Visiting Owls program offers diverse and challenging courses that are uniquely Rice.

Summer Semester 2024: Online or On-Campus*

Next summer, you could take a course that changes your course. With the Rice Visiting Owls program, you can earn college credit in everything from General Physics to Principles of Economics. Students also get to engage and collaborate with our exceptional Rice faculty. Looking to mix it up over the summer? Let’s talk.

*A select number of on-campus courses are available to Houston-area students. All on-campus students must follow campus policies.
