Advising for Athletics

Academic Advising for Athletics is a specialized advising team integral to the Office of Academic Advising. It shares a unified mission, vision, and commitment to advising for all undergraduates, but advising student athletes requires specialized knowledge, training, insight, and attention. National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) compliance rules as well as practice, travel, and competition schedules present unique challenges to our student athletes and each necessitates specific academic support services. These support services may include weekly advising meetings, study hall, and group and private tutoring sessions. It is not an easy task to succeed at the highest level of academia at Rice while training and competing at the highest level of Division I Athletics, but student-athletes at Rice have a long history of success.
