My time as an Admission Counselor has given me the privilege to read student stories and witness their accomplishments by reading about 3,000 applications per cycle. Since I am the territory manager for the largest non-Texas domestic territory, I have traveled to 8 states and recruited in over 50 high schools! In addition to recruitment, I’ve worn many hats in this role, such as project manager and event planner. As an Admission Counselor on the Marketing and Communications and Yield teams, I have experience in cross-team collaboration and project management.

And yes, I found time to travel! Ask me about the Camino de Santiago!

After my first year as a Student Ambassador, I was promoted! In the lead role, I directed the student worker team during busy campus visit days, and I trained new student workers in how to give tours and work the front desk. Working in Undergraduate Admissions helped me to develop skills in public speaking, leadership, and interpersonal communication!

Hey there, my name is Maggie Fazio! I love working with people and helping them develop into better versions of themselves! I work in the Office of Admissions at Rice University, where I help find, recruit, and admit talented students from across the U.S. I love witnessing their stories and celebrating their accomplishments in this role. Before I came here in 2022, I taught English near Madrid, Spain for a year. A long held dream come true, I was able to have relationships with students (ages 5-16), practice Spanish, and travel! I graduated from the University of Dallas in May 2021, where I studied Human and Social Sciences, Spanish, and American politics. While at UD, I had the pleasure of researching for some passion projects, representing my Alma Mater in the Admissions Office, and studying abroad in Rome, Italy. I love collaborating, learning new things, and challenging myself!
