Evaluation:

The evaluation of applications and placement of candidates are at Dokuz Eylul University’s discretion.

Applications are evaluated by the commission established within our University.

Applications of candidates who do not meet the application requirements will not be considered.

The applications of the candidates are evaluated by the commission and finalized as “accepted” or “rejected”.

Placement:

Placement of candidates is completely at Dokuz Eylul University’s discretion.

Dokuz Eylül University has the initiative to decide not to fill the quotas.

Meeting the application conditions does not guarantee admission to the programs.

In the placement of the candidate, the preference order of the candidate and the placement score are taken as basis.

As a result of the evaluation of the applications, the exam or diploma grades of the candidates whose applications are accepted are converted into a hundred grades with a common calculation and a standard formula. In addition, with the decision of the commission, a coefficient can be applied to the converted scores for the admission of qualified students to our University in line with the strategies followed and the targets set by the Higher Education Council in the context of the goal-oriented internationalization policy in higher education. Finally, a placement score is formed for each candidate and candidates are placed by a computer program based on their preferences and placement scores.

Candidates who have been placed in our university can obtain a “Placement Result Document” from the address https://ogrbasvuru.deu.edu.tr/Yos/dogrulama_index.php. This document replaces the “Letter of Acceptance” and can be verified with the verification code at https://ogrbasvuru.deu.edu.tr/Yos/dogrulama_index.php. Candidates can obtain a visa by going to the Turkish Embassy in their country with this document.

Note: Equivalency Certificate for high school education is not required from candidates for application, but Equivalency Certificate is required to enroll in any higher education institution in Türkiye. Giving the Equivalence Certificate in Türkiye is entirely at the discretion of the Ministry of National Education of the Republic of Türkiye. However, due to the high density of provincial and district National Education Directorates, diploma equivalency procedures take a very long time. For this reason, it is important for candidates to apply to the Turkish Embassy or Turkish Consulate in their countries for diploma equivalency.
