Student admission to our program is conducted through lateral transfer, vertical transfer, and
the recognition of prior learning, in accordance with the Council of Higher Education (YÖK)
regulations and Istanbul Aydın University bylaws.
Lateral Transfer: Students from internal or external diploma programs may apply for lateral
transfer based on their academic GPA or central placement scores (Additional Article-
1).
Vertical Transfer: Vocational school graduates can enroll in our undergraduate program
based on their results in the Vertical Transfer Exam (DGS).
Recognition of Prior
Learning: Courses successfully completed at a different higher education institution can be
transferred following an evaluation by the adjustment committee based on content and credit
(ECTS) compatibility. Additionally, exemption rights for certain fundamental courses (such
as Foreign Language) are granted through proficiency exams.
