Reflektif’s student research guideFor university pathways in Türkiye · Not an official institutional service
YOUR OPTIONS, TOGETHER

Compare paths in the same framework.

Not a calculator that picks the best path. A starting point that helps you consider each path's basis, timing, and uncertainties side by side.

First, prepare my research plan
01 / WITH YOUR CURRENT STUDENT STATUS

Transfer

Review transfers within and between institutions separately, using the relevant regulation and the target university's announcement.

02 / WITH YOUR CENTRAL PLACEMENT SCORE

Ek Madde 1

Research the separate implementation principles for transfers based on the central placement score and the university's Ek Madde 1 announcement.

Official basis
YÖK Ek Madde 1 implementation principles
YÖKYÖK
Timing
The Ek Madde 1 application announcement for the relevant term; spring intake depends on a decision of the university's authorized governing body and a separate spring quota announcement. If intake is approved, the institution's calendar places application and evaluation before education begins; do not treat autumn and spring as the same, and there is no universal date.
Points to verify
Confirm the year of enrolment, relevant score type, the target program's base score for that same year, special/language requirements, and previous transfer/preparatory-study history with the institution.
03 / A NEW EXAM, NEW PREFERENCES

YKS again

Assess the time, effort, and uncertainties of a new exam and preference process using ÖSYM's current guides.

Stay in your department

Research a different work field through courses, projects, internships, and advising opportunities.

Which path should I research?
OFFICIAL ROUTE + PERSONAL REASON

You researched how to switch. Now clarify why.
