F.A.Q

According to our University's Summer School Regulations, if a course is opened in our University it is a must for the student to take it from our University. If a summer school has been opened for a course in the faculty he/she is studying, it is not possible to take the respected course from any other different faculties. However, students can take the courses from other faculties if they are not offered in the summer school from their respective faculties. The faculties from which a student can take a course are determined and announced by the faculty board of directors each year.

A student who enrolls in a program with an Undergraduate Transfer or for a Double Major can renounce his/her enrollment right before the start of the academic year.

These students are not accepted as transfer students and they will return to the higher education institution where they applied from.
