      UniPath is a virtual coach that aims to provide free counseling to high school and university students who want to study abroad. The college application process is an overwhelming process. Even though many students feel prepared to study abroad, there is so much information that should be discovered and known without any biased resource. College counseling in Turkey is a very expensive, uncertain, and unreliable resource for this. UniPath is a free digital coach, providing Instagram live broadcast series with students from high-ranking colleges, informative YouTube videos on the application process, Medium blog entries, and Spotify podcast series. This way we ensure everyone who has internet access has the chance to study abroad. We are currently using social media platforms to provide this information free because we are aware that spreading knowledge is faster via social media. It has been 18 months, over 200 live broadcasts, 100 blog entries, and unlimited stories of accepted students. Our biggest achievement is initiating a new culture in the education system, in which we encourage students to learn from their peers who have experience in college application, that created a peer-learning environment. We have impacted not only students but also teachers, principals, college counselors. In a year, we expanded this vision to all parts of our country via student representatives. Primarily, we have reached more than 3000 followers on Instagram and over 1000 subscribers on YouTube. Moreover, we have attended two international competitions. We won first place in "Celebrating High School Innovators" and were awarded 1000USD to fund our aims. We were Turkey's representatives in Global Youth Entrepreneurship Challenge 2021. Show less
