Empowering International Students
PathFinder is a non-profit created to support international students in the UK and beyond.
Consider us your extended family, here to help you navigate the challenges and celebrate the successes.
All our programmes and resources are free for students and graduates. Forever.
About Us
PathFinder began as a project under InStudents, a social impact organisation focused on equity in education. Recognising the growing need for dedicated support for international students, we evolved into an independent Community Interest Company (CIC) with the generous support of our funders.
We're driven by our core values of student-centricity, collaboration, empowerment, inclusivity, and impact. We work closely with students, universities, and employers to create a welcoming and supportive environment where international students can thrive.
Our Vision

Since then, we have directly and indirectly impacted hundreds of international students in the UK
To be the leading organisation championing international student success in the UK. We envision a future where every international student thrives academically, professionally, and personally in a welcoming and supportive environment.

THE WHY?
We've been there. The unfamiliar streets, the culture shock, the feeling of being lost in a new academic system. Every member of our team has walked in your shoes. Born from InStudents, PathFinder is driven by a passion for equity in education. We're here to level the playing field, offering guidance and support every step of the way. You're not alone.
