  • Recognition of Prior Learning

Recognition of prior learning is one of the most important features of the Turkish Education System. Candidates who are accepted to their university by the ÖSYS exam, enroll with their high school diplomas.

Newly enrolled students, if successful, can be exempted from the intensive foreign language preparation program and some mandatory courses by entering the foreign language proficiency exam given by our university.

Candidates who hold an associate degree can be placed in a BA program that is a continuation of their previous program according to their scores on Vertical Transfer Exam (DGS) administered by the Student Selection and Placement Centre (ÖSYM). Such candidates’ previous grades from their successful completion of the courses they have taken that are considered to be equivalent by the university are transferred without regards to their transcript of records and grade point average. Then, based on the credits of the transferred courses, the courses in their new program are determined.

Anadolu University accepts students of inter and intra-university transfer between identical academic programs with reference to “The Regulation of Inter-university Transfer in Associate and BA degree programs, Double major, Minor, and Inter-university Credit Transfer”, and by the candidates’ score from the central placement exam administered by ÖSYM in accordance with the rules and regulations set by the University Senate. Following the same rules and regulations, students can enroll in double major and minor programs on condition that they meet the requirements.

 

Exchange students' recognition of learning

All the students who participate in exchange programs or study abroad by an inter-institutional protocol are accepted by Anadolu University without exception based on the compatibility of their course grades and credits.  Outgoing students of our university are required to submit a Learning Agreement previously approved by their Departmental Coordinator and the Coordinator of International Affairs. The Learning Agreement that lists the courses and their compatibility must be previously approved by the administrative board of the related unit. Following their return, the exchange students’ course(s) taken at the host university are transferred into the relevant semester on our system considering the grading scale sent by the host institution. If the host institution uses the ECTS, the ECTS grading scale is considered. The scales for grade compatibility utilized in undergraduate programs (Table 1) and for graduate programs (Table 2) by Anadolu University are presented below.
