Unsung Heroes
For 25 years, Karina Torres has been a guiding light for UTRGV students navigating the road to graduation. As an Academic Advisor on the Edinburg Campus, Torres has helped thousands of students select the right classes, tackle obstacles, and achieve their educational goals — all with the patience and compassion that make her a trusted figure in the UTRGV community.

As Senior Graduate Student Recruiter in UTRGV's Graduate Recruitment office, Ana Chapa helps bridge the gap between potential and opportunity. Since 2019, she’s played a pivotal role in guiding students through the often-daunting process of graduate admissions — from that first spark of interest to the final steps of enrollment.
