An independent guide to studying and student life in Türkiye

Application document checklist

Use this as a preparation checklist. The university and program determine the final requirements; keep initial-application and final-enrollment documents separate.

Sources last checked:

Core undergraduate documents

Usually prepare the passport identity page, school diploma and transcript. Photos, exam results and language evidence depend on the university. If still at school, ask which temporary evidence is accepted.

  • Legible, uncropped scans
  • Consistent name spelling
  • Complete required pages

Translations, certification and originals

Ask the university which translation language and certification it accepts; rules are not uniform. Final enrollment may require originals and certified copies. Confirm the receiving institution and format before ordering translations.

  • Keep originals with translations
  • Check passport validity and legible stamps
  • Confirm current equivalence rules for your case

Graduate and specialist applications

For graduate study, prepare the previous university diploma and transcript. Add a CV, motivation letter, references, portfolio, exam or research proposal as the program requires; supplying them does not guarantee admission.
