A Better Way To Explore University Options
Before founding UNI-YOU, we spent a decade working with pre-university students…
One thing we’ve consistently observed is that both students and their parents don’t fully understand their higher education options—and it’s no surprise why…
With over 50,000 degree courses and countless combinations available in the UK, combined with a rapidly changing world, choosing the right path can feel overwhelming. In fact, 71% of students report feeling anxious and overwhelmed about making this life-defining decision.
This choice also comes with a significant financial investment, the challenge of living far from home, and the pressure of committing to a degree that will shape future career and life opportunities. As the world changes rapidly, young people are increasingly concerned about which career paths are future-proof, how technology will impact industries, and which skills will be most important moving forward. For international students, these challenges are even greater—facing cultural uncertainties, limited UK knowledge, and few opportunities to explore options in person.
We’re here to bring the clarity and confidence you need to make the right decision.
Smart University Tours
So much more than simple university tours, our immersive experiences are packed with opportunities for exploration, insights, workshops, and real value.
Students live campus life, explore degree options with real professors, and discover the cities they may soon call home. With hands-on experiences and future-focused insights, we equip students to confidently choose the right university, degree, and career path in an ever-evolving world.
The most effecive, efficient and enjoyable way to research your university options

A message from the founder-Maylis Boardman
”I grew up in a small village in the north of England, and as a child, I felt there was nothing special about me...
However, at the age of 14, a meeting with a careers counsellor completely changed my life. They went above and beyond to create opportunities, harnessing the power of others to help me uncover my potential and see both myself and the future in a totally new light.
This set me on a trajectory that opened new doors and helped me realise that everyone has incredible, often untapped potential. Now, as an adult, I’ve dedicated my life to paying it forward. Over the course of my career, I’ve developed a very particular set of skills—which have shaped me into a higher education expert and futurist.
Inspired by my own experience, I am on a mission to empower young people by creating opportunities that help them explore and make sense of life and university choices, while strategising for a future full of purpose and opportunity, aligned with growing industries and future career predictions in a rapidly changing world
