WHO CAN APPLY FOR GRADUATE PROGRAMS?

• International students applying for graduate programs must have a bachelor’s or master’s degree from a university abroad recognised by the Council of Higher Education (YÖK), depending on the type of program they are applying for.
• Turkish citizens who have completed their undergraduate education in a country other than Türkiye are also accepted as international students.
• Depending on the program applied for, Turkish applicants who have graduated from undergraduate programs in foreign countries may be required to submit the equivalence certificate they have obtained from the Higher Education Council during the application process. During the registration process, the submission of the diploma equivalence certificate is mandatory.
• Citizens of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (except those who completed their entire education at educational institutions in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus and hold a GCE AL result) are not considered international students.
