Admission, recognition, and transfer procedures in the Business Management Undergraduate Program are conducted in accordance with the Higher Education Law No. 2547, relevant regulations, and the directives approved by the Senate of Istanbul Aydın University. All processes are carried out in line with the principles of transparency, traceability, and academic equivalence.
Horizontal transfers are implemented through three different pathways: intra-institutional transfer, inter-institutional transfer, and transfer based on the central placement score (Additional Article 1). Applications are received in accordance with the academic calendar announced for the fall and spring semesters of each academic year. Applications are evaluated based on the applicants’ grade point average, central placement score, the base score of the applied program, and the available quota. Horizontal transfer applications and results are processed and announced through the University Information System (UBIS).
For students admitted through vertical transfer, prior learning is evaluated by the relevant academic commissions based on course content, credit, and ECTS workload. Exemption and course adaptation procedures are carried out for courses deemed equivalent, and the student’s academic progression is structured within the framework of an individualized course plan.
Exemption and course adaptation procedures are conducted in accordance with the Exemption and Course Adaptation Directive. Courses previously completed successfully by students are evaluated in terms of content, credits, and learning outcomes, and exemptions are granted for courses found to be academically equivalent. Exempted courses are recorded on the student’s transcript and included in the calculation of the grade point average.
Recognition of prior learning is based on the documentation of knowledge and skills acquired through formal, non-formal, or informal learning. Evaluations conducted within this scope are decided by the relevant academic boards in accordance with the procedures and principles governing the recognition of acquired competencies. All admission, recognition, and transfer processes are regularly monitored and reviewed within the framework of the quality assurance system and are updated through continuous improvement activities when deemed necessary.
