Before university
Study Choice
University, vocational training, a dual study programme, a gap year: you want to find out which path suits you.
Study Choice · Orientation · Decision · Action You don’t need to have it all figured out.
But you can work out your path step by step: first sort out where you stand. Then decide. Then put it into action. EvolvU is right beside you along the way – before university and while you’re there, digitally in the app and, if you like, in person in a 1:1 session.
One path, three stages.
You go through them at your own pace. After each one, you decide whether to carry on.
Orientation
Where do you stand right now?
You sort out what really matters to you at the moment. At the end you get your Orientation Report: your own statements, put in order and set in relation to each other.
Decision
What will you decide?
You look at what you want to move away from and where you want to go, compare your options and make your decision. Or you say “not yet”. That’s a result too.
Action
How does it become your path?
You line yourself up with your decision, set your first steps, try them out in everyday life and adjust as you go.

Why deciding feels so hard right now
The constant worry that you’re backing the wrong horse. Expectations from everyone around you. With one of the biggest decisions of your life, you’re often left on your own. That’s exactly what we change – calmly, honestly and at your own pace.

I’m already studying but having doubts – stay, switch or start again?
I’m planning a gap year and want to make the most of it.
I’m a parent and want to be there without taking over.

Who’s behind it
My path wasn’t straight either.

Working on the app
Alexander Kienast
Product & IT Support
I finished school in 2026 and didn’t know what to study either. For now I’m helping to build the app – I want to study business informatics from 2027.
In marketing

Branding & Marketing
I know what it’s like to juggle studies and a job: fifth semester of International Branding & Marketing and a year and a half in marketing alongside it. Now I’m part of EvolvU.
Frequently asked questions
The short answers.
Is EvolvU traditional study advice?
No. We don’t give you outside recommendations or rankings. We help you with questions and structure to prepare your own decision about what to study – you stay the one who decides.
How much does EvolvU cost?
The app has three packages, one for each stage: Orientation €39.99, Decision €49.99, Action €59.99. You book them individually. Before you buy, you can try out how the app asks questions – no account needed. You’ll find the personal 1:1 sessions under Packages & pricing.
Is this coaching or therapy?
EvolvU offers coaching, mentoring and orientation – not psychotherapy and no diagnosis. We work with young people who are generally in good mental health on questions about what to study, their future and their decisions.
