Statistical Reports updated to 2025

The Rice Purity Test (aka “The Innocence Test”) is a 100-question survey that originated in Rice University. It is a self-graded survey that assesses the participants’ supposed degree of innocence in worldly matters (sex, drugs, deceit, and other activities assumed to be vices), generally on a percentage scale with 0% being the least pure and 100% being the purest. It used to be voluntarily tested by new students for bonding with other similar students. However, the Rice Purity Test is normally for fun nowadays.

Another friendly reminder: This test is for entertainment purposes only. We do not advocate the use of “pure” to praise others. With that being said, impurity is not a defect as well. Purity or impurity just represents your past, what is more important, is how you, in the present moment, grasp the goodness within to influence more people - that is the real purity in our eyes. - Apr 2, 2022

Why is it called the Rice Purity Test?

Because The Purity Test has traditionally acted as a bridge between O-week and real college life at Rice University. Its name derives from Rice, the word used to refer to Rice University. O-week (Orientation Week) is a period before the start of an academic year at a university or tertiary institutions. Rice’s O-Week is a unique, unforgettable experience that does not exist at any other college.
