“My favorite thing about UTPB is the small class sizes and hands-on learning that is offered here,” said Richardson.


“With many challenging subjects, the smaller class sizes allow more flexibility and opportunity to ask questions and gain a better understanding of different topics.”


Richardson says the scholarships and career opportunities were extremely valuable and excited her to continue her education at UTPB.

“I would like to thank UTPB’s professors and scholarship career coordinators for believing in me and encouraging me throughout my academic journey,” said Richardson.
