About The Rice Purity Test Lab
Welcome to the Rice Purity Test Lab. We are dedicated to preserving and sharing one of the most iconic college traditions in history.
A Brief History
The Rice Purity Test originated at Rice University in 1924. Initially created as a 10-question survey for female students to bond over shared experiences, it quickly evolved into a 100-question comprehensive checklist for all students. Over the decades, it transformed from a local campus tradition into a global rite of passage that marks the transition from orientation week to true college life.
Our Mission
Our goal is to provide a modern, accessible, and fun platform for users to take the classic test. Whether you are an incoming freshman looking to break the ice with your O-Week group, or simply curious about your "purity score" compared to friends, this site offers the authentic experience with updated questions that reflect contemporary life.
"It's a voluntary opportunity for O-week groups to bond, and for students to track the maturation of their experiences throughout college."
