The 22-year-old social media mogul shared that she would be visiting her alma mater – this time as a guest speaker.
‘I’m going to speak in a class again. “I can meet the student and stay in touch with them,” she said.
“I think a lot of life is about connections and community and I just believe in supporting each other and supporting each other’s dreams.”
Referring to her scholarship, Alix said it was a “dream come true” to be able to help other students.
When Alix became a social media sensation, she was in the second semester of her senior year in college.
And despite being close to the finish line, many tried to convince Alix to quit school because she was already successful.
However, the 22-year-old noted that she never thought about it because she valued her education.
Later, Alix returned to class and showed herself walking through the University of Miami.

When she arrived, she sat at the front of the class and joked that she felt like she was giving a “class presentation” and called herself “Professor Al.”
Alix said she first came up with her Get Ready With Me videos after going viral during a livestream.
Her former professor raved about Alix’s “work ethic” – with the 22-year-old noting that “editing, filming and attending classes” was “stressful.”
When it came to advice for the aspiring influencers, she suggested they brainstorm their content beforehand and focus on building engagement with their followers.
She explained: “Every time I go somewhere I do a Get Ready With Me and an outfit video, so those are two regular videos that I know I’m doing.”
The social media mogul explained that before traveling, she searched for “sounds” and came up with “topics” that she had yet to discuss.
