General Principles and Implementation Rules
- Lateral transfer cannot be made to the first and last semesters of associate degree programmes, or to the first two and last two semesters of bachelor’s degree programmes.
- In order to transfer from open and distance education to formal education programmes, the student’s cumulative grade point average in their current programme must be 80 or above out of 100, or their central placement score in the year of registration must be equal to or higher than the base score of the degree programme of the university they wish to transfer to for that year.
- Higher education institutions located outside the borders of the Republic of Türkiye will be considered overseas higher education institutions.
Inter-Institutional Lateral Transfer
- Lateral transfers to our University are made from equivalent degree programmes at the same level in other higher education institutions.
- (Amended sentence: RG-11/1/2023-32070) The applications of all students wishing to make inter-institutional and intra-institutional lateral transfers are evaluated according to the criteria set by the senate, with the grade point average and at least 40% of the ÖSYS/YKS score in the programme’s score type in the year of enrolment in higher education included in the calculation, and transfers are made according to the allocated quota.
- The evaluation scores of candidates are calculated using the following formula;
- In lateral transfer evaluations, among candidates with equal scores, priority is given to those with a higher Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA).
- The student’s cumulative grade point average for the semesters completed in the registered programme must be at least 60 out of 100 or at least 2.29 out of 4.
- Candidates who cannot meet the success requirement in the fifth paragraph but whose central placement score is equal to or higher than the base score of the degree programme they wish to transfer to may apply for lateral transfer.
- In converting grades obtained under the four-point or hundred-point system into one another, the conversion tables determined by the Higher Education Executive Board are used.
- The results of the inter-institutional lateral transfer evaluation, with the names of all candidates with valid applications ranked according to the scores used in the evaluation, are announced on our University’s website.
- Primary and reserve candidates are determined in line with the announced quota. Registration applications are taken from reserve candidates in place of primary candidates who do not register within the registration dates set in the calendar.
Lateral Transfer to Our University from Overseas Higher Education Institutions
- A quota is determined by university senates for lateral transfers from higher education institutions abroad. If a quota is set, it is determined by the university senate, together with the overseas higher education institution quotas, which shall not exceed half of the inter-institutional lateral transfer quota for each programme.
- For transfer from higher education institutions in foreign countries to higher education institutions in Türkiye, the inter-institutional lateral transfer success requirements of this Regulation (Amended phrase: RG-10/6/2020-31151) set out in the second paragraph of Article 11 are required of the student.
- In lateral transfers from higher education institutions abroad, students who hold the base score for admission to the relevant year of the degree programme at the higher education institution they wish to transfer to may apply for lateral transfer without a success requirement in all courses taken during their higher education abroad. The lateral transfer applications of students applying in this way are evaluated outside the scope of the overseas lateral transfer quota, within the principles determined by the university senate.
- In applications from overseas universities, it is required that the higher education institution where the student studied abroad and the programme of study be recognised by the Council of Higher Education as an institution authorised to award associate or bachelor’s degrees, and that the equivalence of the student’s registered degree programme to the associate or bachelor’s degree programme applied for by lateral transfer be accepted by the relevant university.
- The minimum scores in the Student Selection and Placement Examinations conducted by the Student Selection and Placement Centre, together with the examinations accepted as equivalent and their scores, to be used in evaluating transfer applications of students who began higher education abroad to higher education programmes in Türkiye, are announced by the Council of Higher Education together with the overseas lateral transfer quotas determined by universities. To be able to apply for lateral transfer, candidates must have scores at or above the announced minimum scores.
- In lateral transfers from higher education institutions abroad, the number of students who can transfer to each year of a programme from the same overseas higher education institution cannot exceed 15 per cent of the overseas quota for the relevant year of that programme. In calculating 15 per cent, numbers below 1 are rounded up to 1. If the part after the decimal point is less than 5, it is rounded down to the lower whole number; if it is 5 or above, it is rounded up to the next whole number.
- With regard to lateral transfer from higher education institutions established abroad, including the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, to programmes requiring a success ranking at higher education institutions in Türkiye, the Council of Higher Education may set additional conditions beyond the provisions of this Regulation.
- In order to make a lateral transfer from a higher education institution abroad to a programme in our country requiring a success ranking;
a) In the year the student began higher education, the university in which they are enrolled must be ranked in the world rankings determined by the ranking organisations taken as a basis by the Council of Higher Education within the top four hundred, and the student must meet the semester/year and success requirements of this Regulation,
b) If the student is enrolled at a university outside the top four hundred;
1) Those who completed their secondary education in Türkiye must in any case have taken the central placement examination and have met, as of the year of registration, the success ranking requirement in the relevant score type of the programme requiring a success ranking,
2) Those who completed at least the last two years of their secondary education abroad must have successfully completed at least four semesters, excluding the preparatory class, of the degree programme in which they are registered.

GENERAL PRINCIPLES
- Lateral transfer may be made, within the quotas determined by the relevant board, to equivalent-level degree programmes within a faculty, school, conservatoire or vocational school, or within another faculty, school, conservatoire or vocational school of the same university.
- The semesters and degree programmes for which an intra-institutional lateral transfer quota will be set are decided by the relevant boards, starting from the second semester up to and including the fifth semester for each degree programme, and not exceeding fifteen per cent of the student quota stipulated in the ÖSYM Guide for each year in which a quota is announced. Students studying under a scholarship quota in a programme at a foundation university are deemed to have waived their scholarships when they make a lateral transfer. In determining the intra-institutional transfer quota of higher education institutions that operate a transfer to degree programmes after a common programme, the quotas determined by the senate for those degree programmes are taken as the basis.
- The transfer of candidates placed in a common programme with one score type to degree programmes within the same higher education institution that admit students with a different score type is made in accordance with the intra-institutional lateral transfer provisions of this Regulation.
- In order to apply for lateral transfer between degree programmes at the same level within the university that admit students with different central placement score types, the student’s central placement score in the score type valid for the degree programme they wish to transfer to, as of the year they took the central examination, must not be lower than the lowest base score of the equivalent degree programmes at other universities in Türkiye.
- (Amended sentence: RG-11/1/2023-32070) The applications of all students wishing to make inter-institutional and intra-institutional lateral transfers are evaluated according to the criteria set by the senate, with the grade point average and at least 40% of the ÖSYS/YKS score in the programme’s score type in the year of enrolment in higher education included in the calculation, and transfers are made according to the allocated quota.
- The evaluation scores of candidates are calculated using the following formula;
- In lateral transfer evaluations, among candidates with equal scores, priority is given to those with a higher Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA).-
- For intra-institutional lateral transfer at our University, the student’s cumulative grade point average for the semesters completed in the registered degree programme (2.50 out of 4) is determined by the senate.
- Primary and reserve candidates are determined by the senate in line with the announced quota. Registration applications are taken from reserve candidates in place of primary candidates who do not register within the registration dates set in the calendar.
