FAQ

Are there entrance exams?

No. Istanbul's private universities admit based on your school certificate or diploma — no SAT or TÖMER required to start. Medicine is more competitive, but still exam-free.

Do I need to know Turkish?

Not if you choose an English-taught program. For Turkish-taught programs the university provides a TÖMER preparatory year. English is confirmed with the university's internal test.

How much does tuition cost?

The prices on this page are the university's official yearly tuition for international students. Uni4U adds no fees: you pay the same as applying directly, but with full support.

What does Uni4U support include?

Program matching, application, acceptance letter, visa and residence permit help, airport pickup, housing and support throughout your studies — free for the student.

When should I apply?

The earlier the better: international quotas for popular programs fill up by summer. Ideally 4-6 months before your studies start.
