Transfer Ready

Take Flight STEM Pathway provides students who are ready to transfer to a four-year university with the support and resources they need to set them up for success.

Through the Take Flight STEM Pathway program, select STEM honor students from Lone Star and San Jacinto colleges will benefit from:

  • Completing a set of core STEM courses and an Associate’s Degree at Lone Star or San Jacinto colleges
  • Coordinated academic advising from faculty and staff at their respective schools and from faculty and staff advisors at Rice
  • Participating in paid, full-time summer research experiences (REU) on Rice’s campus
  • And, if admitted to Rice, taking part in a summer transition program that includes earning Rice credit. This part of the program will begin in the summer of 2023
