Hi! I’m Priya, and I am now in my third year as an Advertising student at the University of Texas at Austin. Advertising has been a very fulfilling path for me here at UT, and I’ve loved seeing the skills I’ve developed over time grow with my learning. Outside of classes, I am a proud member of the Kappa Chapter of Zeta Tau Alpha, and I can’t wait to be finishing up my third year soon!

I would not be where I am without the help of my Vault Prep tutor, and I still enjoy reaching out to show my thanks and appreciation to them. As someone who enjoyed school and learning, but was an anxious test-taker, the ACT brought me a lot of worry during my junior and senior years of high school. My tutor showed me how to break down the test and apply the skills I had learned throughout high school, giving me confidence going into the test.

The literacy and problem-solving skills I learned during my experience are still very valuable to me today in college.
