Recognition of Prior Learning

Formal and non-formal learning, including training existing accepted procedures, the development is still at the beginning stages in Turkey and comprehensive at the national level on this issue and there is also an adequate legal framework. However, within the framework of institutional autonomy, there are also a number of institutional level practices for the assignment of loans that allow exemption from certain program requirements based on RPL. In these studies, which are applied especially at a comprehensive level, students who have knowledge and skills in areas such as foreign language and computer use before entering the university are subjected to an exam and students who are successful at a certain level by the program they are accepted are considered exempt from the relevant parts of the curriculum. However, RPL is also applied to students, including abroad, who wish to transfer to another institution that is equal to or above their field of study. In such cases, students may be exempted from courses that are the same or similar to the courses they have taken and passed, based on the approval of the program's orientation board.

Similar admission procedures are used extensively at our university. Regulations regarding the general admission conditions regarding such applications are outlined in the relevant sections of our Education and Exam Regulations, Regulations and Regulations Regarding Graduate Programs and Undergraduate Transfer Students.
