Google Calendar and Events

Google Calendar is available for faculty, staff, graduate students and undergraduate students. This document provides instructions on how to log in to your Google Calendar and create events.

New Rice Google account holders use their NetID password to login into Google.

Individuals with Rice Google accounts that were established prior to May 17, 2021, will continue to have a separate Google password that differs from their NetID password until they change one of the passwords and then the passwords will automatically be synchronized. If individuals would prefer to have one less password to remember, they may synchronize them by resetting their password at https://mynetid.rice.edu.
