At the start of each semester, our students renew their registration and enrol in courses by paying the tuition fees they are liable for within the announced periods.

Matters concerning registration renewal dates, course registration and the payment of tuition fees are set out below:

1. Important Points on Tuition Fee Payment 

The registration page will not be opened for students with debts from previous semesters, and they will not be able to complete course registration. In order to carry out transactions for the current semester, outstanding debts from previous semesters must be paid first.
On the ‘Course Registration>Student Information’ screen of the Student Information System, depending on the Financial Eligibility Status, students either continue with course registration or are directed to payment.

The two possible outcomes depending on the Financial Eligibility Status and the steps to follow are as follows:

Information on EFT/bank transfer can be found at https://www.hku.edu.tr/banka-hesap-numaralari/. Payment by credit card can be made at https://odeme.hku.edu.tr/.

Students whose financial eligibility has been completed should follow the steps below to select courses.

2. Important Notes on Course Selection

All of our students, except those in the preparatory class, will complete their course registration for the Fall Semester of the 2026-2027 Academic Year online between 15 September 2026 (10:00) and 20 September 2026 (23:59).

During the registration renewal period, our students will be able to register for courses by logging in to the Student Information System (OBS) (https://obs.hku.edu.tr/oibs/std/login.aspx).

• If you are logging in to the system for the first time, or if your password contains your Turkish ID number, the Change Password screen will appear and you must change your password.

• Course registration will be carried out through the Student Information System (OBS), and courses will be approved by advisors. All courses selected by the student must be approved by the advisor. Courses awaiting approval are courses that have not been registered. All responsibility in this regard rests with the student.
• When a course registration is rejected by the advisor, the course selection must be completed in line with the advisor’s warning.
• Students who have completed their course registration may make changes to the courses they have selected during the add/drop week, in accordance with the academic calendar.
• Students may be unable to complete course registration because they have not paid their tuition fees or for other reasons. However, these periods count towards the maximum period of study. Students in this situation cannot benefit from student rights (student certificate, ID card, letters to the military recruitment office, etc.), and the necessary notification is made to the military recruitment office for male students. Students who do not wish this unregistered period to count towards their period of study may freeze their registration.
