In our newest episode, Laura chats with Audrey Atienza, a recent UT Austin graduate, YouTuber, and Founder of The Sorority Sister, about her experience as an out-of-state student navigating the housing landscape at UT.

Audrey candidly shares her regrets about choosing on-campus housing instead of an off-campus dorm and the highs and lows of living in a sorority house. She also offers valuable advice on finding the right roommates, the pitfalls of waiting too late to sign a lease, and the advantages of living in new developments in West Campus.
