Samantha Elliott

Three of my biggest goals are coming to an end all within a month of each other. This weekend, I graduated with my Masters of Accountancy. In a few weeks, I pass on the title of Miss Illinois USA and take the final part of my CPA exam. It been a wild year, but I’m thankful for my time at UA and for representing Illinois.

In my first semester of grad school, I made Top 20 at Miss USA, earned a 4.0 GPA, and passed the first part of my CPA exam. Can’t wait to see what next semester brings!
