International Students

Tuition fees are determined by the Board of Trustees at the beginning of each academic year. Annual tuition fees, dormitory fees and scholarships for registered students in the academic years following the year of university entrance are determined each year by the Board of Trustees, taking into account the cost increases and the University budget of the related year. The tuition fee covers one academic year and is paid on the payment dates announced in the academic calendar. Summer school tuition fee is not included in this fee. The tuition fee does not cover health insurance, dormitory, food or other expenses.

PER-CREDIT TUITION FOR UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS WHO NEED TO COMPLETE AT MOST 18 MORE ECTS IN ORDER TO GRADUATE

Undergraduate students who need to complete at most 18 more credits, excluding internship, in order to be eligible to graduate pay their tuition based on per-credit rating. Tuition per credit is 1/60th of the annual tuition of the student’s current academic program. For recipients of tuition waivers, the tuition per credit will be waived up to the rate of the tuition waiver the student has been awarded.

When determining the students who will pay per-credit tuition in a semester, should it be understood that there are incomplete grades from the previous semester, these courses are deemed to be successfully completed, and any student who has completed 222 ECTS credits excluding internships is included in the group who will pay per-credit tuition in the respective semester. Students in this group are not charged regular tuition that current students need to pay on the tuition payment dates. Therefore, during the course registration period, these students are not required make any tuition payments and unpaid tuition will not preclude them from selecting courses during the course registration period. These students may still select and register for courses during the course registration period, even though tuition has not been paid, yet.

Unlike regular current students, students in this group must first register for their courses for their per-credit tuition to be calculated. As these students’ remaining number of ECTS credits may change if their incomplete grades are replaced with a fail grade for the courses they took in the previous semester, their tuition will be assessed at the end of the course add-drop period based on the total ECTS credits of the courses they have taken for the current semester. Students with per-credit tuition must pay their tuition after the add-drop week during the dates specified in the “Tuition Payments” announcement. In a case in which students take more than 18 ECTS credits, they are charged semester tuition.

Students who have not completed their internship, despite having completed all other courses offered in their curriculum, must register for the internship course. These students will also be charged per-credit. 

Students who need to complete at most 18 credits in order to graduate but are still charged semester tuition instead of per-credit tuition may contact their undergraduate program representatives at Student Services.

SUMMER TUITION

Students who plan to attend the summer school must pay a separate tuition. Summer tuition is determined annually by the Board of Trustees for each academic year.

Summer tuition is paid per credit for each undergraduate and graduate course offered during the summer session. Tuition per credit is 1/60th of the annual tuition of the student’s current academic program. Summer tuition is calculated based on the total credits of the courses the student takes during the summer session. For recipients of tuition waivers, the tuition per credit will be waived up to the rate of the tuition waiver the student has been awarded. Summer tuition is paid per credit for each course offered during the Summer session. There will be no refunds for course registration cancellations during summer school.

English Preparatory Program students who plan to take courses during the Summer Session are charged half of the applicable semester tuition based on their tuition waivers. However, the summer session tuition is waived for students who started the English Preparatory Program at the “A2” level and successfully completed the “B1” level by the end of the Spring semester in their first academic year. These students may attend “B2” level courses free of charge during the summer session. These students also retain their additional scholarship, including cash stipends, or housing, dining, transportation support, during the summer session.
