Zara Dar, a former PhD student, has recently made headlines for her bold career shift from academia to becoming a full-time OnlyFans content creator.
Known for her educational YouTube channel, Zara’s decision to leave her PhD program in engineering has sparked widespread discussion and debate.
Career Transition
In a tweet, Zara clarified her reasons for the transition, stating, “My PhD was in Engineering. Dropping out of my PhD was my choice.
Please watch the full video if you would like to know all the reasons. Money was only part of the story—the state of academia today was the primary reason.” She emphasized that financial instability and the pressures within academia played a significant role in her decision.
After I made a video about why I dropped out of my PhD to pursue OnlyFans full-time, I have been seeing a lot of misinformation on social media, whether intentional or not. I have not given any exclusive interviews yet. So, I would like to clarify the facts here.

Addressing Misinformation
Zara also addressed misinformation about her background, noting, “With all due respect, I am not Pakistani. I believe some people are confusing me with a beautiful influencer named ‘Zara Dar’ @ZaraNaeemDar. I am American, born and raised, with a mixed background: American, Persian, Southern European, Middle Eastern, and Indian.” This clarification came after a viral video on X (formerly known as Twitter) led to numerous discussions and some inaccuracies about her origin.
