Specific Admission Requirements
To apply for a doctoral program; Candidates must hold a Master´s degree, or a degree in medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine. A direct admission to the doctoral program with a Bachelor´s degree depends on specific requirements of the doctoral program. For health sciences, holders of Bachelor´s and Master´s degrees must possess ALES with the minimum acceptable score on sciences determined by the Senate. Those holding a degree in medicine must possess either an ALES score on sciences or TUS when applying for a doctoral program in basic medical sciences. Candidates must score at least 50 points in medical sciences when applying to the program with TUS. Those who have completed specialization are not required to possess ALES or TUS when applying for a doctoral program. Among foreign languages such as English, German, French, Italian, Russian and Arabic, and for foreign nationals, among languages such as English, German, and French, candidates must demonstrate proficiency in a language by satisfying one of the following exams; ÜDS, KPDS, TOEFL or equivalent approved by YÖK, and provide the minimum acceptable score as approved by the Senate. Recognition of any other foreign language qualifications is dependent on the Senate. For foreign nationals, admission requirement shall be any of the following; Turkish Proficiency Exam by TÖMER and corresponding ALES score, or scores in exams such as GRE or GMAT, accepted as internationally equivalent by YÖK. Candidates for doctoral programs must possess a minimum score of 55 points in ALES; 55 language points in ÜDS/KPDS or equivalent. For foreign nationals, a document by TÖMER certifying the knowledge of Turkish (except for those studying in Turkey) is accepted equivalent to the score of the exams approved by YÖK as an equivalent language proficiency exam. Those applying for doctoral programs with TUS are required to possess a minimum score of 50 points in related field. Those who score below 60 points in overall performance are not admitted. In evaluation, the listed exams are responsible for the following percentages: TUS/ALES score 50%, Foreign Language 15%, GPA of Bachelor´s/Master´s degree 15%, interview 20%.

Examination Regulations, Assessment and Grading
The exams of the courses can be done written, written-oral or applied. In order to take the tests of the postgraduate programs, the attendance of the courses is required to be at least 70% in theoretical or 80% in practical hours. The exams are evaluated by over 100points awarded. To be successful, at doctorate programs it is required to get at least 75 points out of 100 points. Within the frame of the principals mentioned above, to evaluate the points as letter grades; AA, BA, BB and CB at doctorate programs are considered successful at the courses. At postgraduate programs, a student failed at any course can take the exams at the end of the semester even if the course is not opened up the following semester. The student failed at this exam on the ground of absence or not carrying out the preconditions of the course repeats the course when it is opened up. If the course is subtracted or not opened up, an equivalent course to it is determined by the suggestion of the concerned head of department and by the decision of the board. Under these circumstances, the student is responsible of the equivalent course instead of the course that she/he needs to repeat. The adjustment of the grades of the students who practice upon the national or international student Exchange programs like Erasmus and Farabi are executed by the decision of the board and the decision by the institution directory. These grades are recorded to the academic transcript. The academic standing of the student is determined at the end of every semester on the term grade point averages and general grade point averages that is calculated on the coefficients given as the letter grades according to the concerned regulations. Term grade point averages and general grade point averages are calculated by the grade point averages. Grade point average (GPA) is calculated by the division of the total credits to the total out of the multiplication of the course credits and letter grades´s equivalents. GPA is calculated as two digits after the comma. Both term grade point average and general grade point average are determined by the grades of the courses from AA to FF. All of the grades are recorded to the academic transcript (Transcript of Records-ToR).
