Transfers at the end of the first year cannot be permitted for students coming from a higher education institution in which examinations are not held at the end of the first year.
- In order to transfer to Akdeniz University from abroad, the central placement score of the students in the year they were admitted to the higher education institution must be equal or higher than the general quota base score for the same year of the programme which they wish to transfer to. These students are not required to be totally successful in all courses. Transfers through the central placement score will be considered separately from the quotas for transfers from abroad.
- Students applying for transfer to the Akdeniz University Faculty of Medicine from other countries are given precedence if the Faculty of Medicine at which they are currently studying is accredited by institutions recognized by the World Federation for Medical Education (WFME), or the European Association for Quality Assurance in Higher Education (ENQA).
- An acceptable level of proficiency in the Turkish language is required before a student can be allowed to start any educational or training courses, with the exception of candidates who are eligible to register for programmes in which all courses are in a foreign language or languages. If the applicant who has totally completed his/her secondary education in Turkey, or in the Turkish Schools which are founded by the Turkish Ministry of Education in a foreign country or has a diploma (associate, undergraduate, master or doctorate degree) awarded for a programme in which the language of instruction is 100% Turkish from a university inside or outside Turkey, that person will not be required to take the Turkish Proficiency Certificate. The Turkish Proficiency Levels of candidates who are given a place on an academic programme will be determined according to the following criteria;

  • Their results in the Turkish Proficiency Test administered by the Akdeniz University-TÖMER,
  • The Turkish Proficiency Certificate awarded by Akdeniz University-TÖMER,
  • The Turkish Proficiency Certificate awarded by a Yunus Emre Institution.

Candidates who have reached the required Certificate of Turkish Proficiency standard (C1 ad C2) may begin their courses at Akdeniz University.

Candidates who do not submit the required Turkish Proficiency Certificate before they start their courses will be given a deferment for a period of one year after registration. This is to allow them to improve their standard of Turkish Proficiency to the required level. Candidates who achieve the required Turkish Proficiency Certificate at the end of their 1st deferment period will be permitted to start their courses at the beginning of the following academic year. Candidates will have their registrations cancelled if they fail to reach the required standard in the Turkish Proficiency Examination in the two years following their registration in the Turkish Education Programme.
-Transfer procedures for the students who want to transfer to Akdeniz University from the universities in a foreign country are carried in accordance with the principles which will be determined by the Higher Education Council.
- Transfer from the Private Higher Education Institutions which are not signified in the Guide to ÖSYS (Guide to Student Selection and Placement Exam) in the year students were admitted will not be allowed.

  • In cases in which there are courses which the student did not take in the previous semesters, students may be required to attend an Adaptation Programme with additional courses.
  • When evaluating applications for transfers from abroad, the time limit imposed on credit transfers as specified in Article 7/1/b of ‘The Regulations on Course Issues, Examinations and Success Assessment of Akdeniz University’ is not taken into consideration for courses which the student has previously taken.
  • Comparisons between courses which the student has previously taken, and the courses offered in the diploma programme to which the student has applied to transfer will be made by the relevant commissions, and a decision will be made about which semester or grade the student will start on according to the following criteria;
  • If the total number of ECTS credits of the exempted courses is from 1 to 39 ECTS, the student will study on year 1 of the course;
  • If the total number of ECTS credits of the exempted courses is from 40 to 99 ECTS, the student will study on year 2 of the course;

  • In programmes for which the Pass-Fail grading system is used, the student must take any missing courses the year before starting his or her studies in the academic year to which the student has been transferred.
  • Within the Adaptation Process, successfully completed courses which have previously been taken will be transferred and they will be included for calculating the GPA.
  • In cases where the courses which the student has previously taken were not indicated in the transcript as being assessed by the ‘’letter grade system’’, these courses will be accepted at a grade of ‘’CC’, in accordance with principles set out in ‘The Regulation on Course Issues, Examination and Success Assessment of Akdeniz University’.
  • Transfer students are allowed to start the academic year at the same time with current students. Registration process is completed by confirmation letter which is signed by the applicant for agreeing the adaptation process and the curriculum.
