In this episode of Study Hall: College Journeys, Hank Green interviews fellow YouTuber Gohar Khan—educational content creator, first generation college student, and MIT grad!

Before becoming the internet's go-to college guide, Gohar was an ambitious kid writing movies, rallying his elementary school to beat a Guinness World Record, and dreaming of a career as a Minecraft YouTuber. But when the pandemic interrupted his junior year at MIT, he started recording videos of himself—and unintentionally started a career in college admissions content!

Now, Gohar uses his platform to demystify an often confusing system and help make higher education more accessible for all.
