Exams, measurement and evaluation and graduation conditions are carried out in accordance with the procedures and principles specified in the Afyon Kocatepe University Associate and Undergraduate Education-Teaching and Examination Regulation. Accordingly, the exams that can be applied to evaluate the success of students are as follows: midterm exam, make-up exam, project/assignment, application exam, end-of-term exam, make-up exam, single-course exam. At least one midterm exam and end-of-term/year or internship exam is held for each course. A make-up exam is opened for those who receive the letter grades DC, DD, FD, FF or YZ at the end of these exams. All exams are evaluated out of 100 points. The course success score is calculated out of 100 points again depending on the contribution rates of the mid-term/year and mid-term/year end exams. The student's success grade in a course is evaluated by the instructor teaching the course and as a letter grade. For this purpose, the most appropriate method according to statistical criteria is used from the relative evaluation and absolute evaluation methods. The success levels and coefficients expressed by letter grades are as follows.

Letter Grade Evaluation Coefficient Percentage Value: 4.0 (90 – 100) for AA; 3.5 (85 – 89) for BA; 3.0 (75 – 84) for BB; 2.5 (70 – 74) for CB; 2.0 (60 – 69) for CC Conditionally Passed 1.5 (50 – 59) for DC; 1.0 (40 – 49 FF) for FD; 0.5 (30-39) for FF 29 and below YT Sufficient.

In order for a student to be considered successful in a course, the success grade of that course must be YT, CC or above. Students whose YANO value is 2.25 and above, calculated according to Article 18 of the regulation, are considered successful in the semester/year courses in which they received a DC letter grade, and this status is indicated with DC+.

To monitor the quality of higher education programs;

• YÖK is responsible for planning, organizing, managing and supervising the education, training and other activities carried out in higher education institutions.
• “University Monitoring and Evaluation Reports” of higher education institutions are published every year within the framework of the criteria determined by YÖK. The reports prepared according to these reports, which include quantitative and qualitative evaluations of higher education institutions, are also shared with the public by YÖK.
• The “Foundation Higher Education Institutions Report” is published each year by the Council of Higher Education, which includes academic, administrative and financial data on foundation higher education institutions. These reports, which include quantitative and qualitative evaluations of foundation higher education institutions, are shared with the public by the Council of Higher Education. The quality assurance of undergraduate programs in higher education is provided according to the “Procedures and Principles for Providing Quality Assurance of Higher Education Diploma Programs”:

1. Creation and Approval of Curriculum:

1.1. YÖK determines the minimum standards and criteria required for opening undergraduate departments and programs in higher education institutions.

1.2. The curriculum of undergraduate programs in higher education institutions and the learning outcomes that each program will provide to students are determined by the senates of higher education institutions in accordance with the basic principles determined by YÖK on these matters.

1.3. The curriculum of the National Core Education Programs is implemented by higher education institutions with the approval of the Council of Higher Education after being approved by the relevant Deans' Council.

2. Measurement and Evaluation: The measurement and evaluation of the learning outcomes that each undergraduate program will provide to the student is carried out in accordance with the education, training and examination regulations prepared by higher education institutions in accordance with the basic principles determined by YÖK on these issues.

3. Certification: Students enrolled in undergraduate programs receive a bachelor's degree if they successfully complete the course credits and other obligations determined by higher education institutions.

4. Self-Assessment-External Assessment: In the context of continuous monitoring, higher education institutions enter the “Internal Institutional Assessment Reports” of the previous year into the Information System prepared by the Higher Education Quality Board (YÖKAK) at the beginning of each year. YÖKAK shares the “Institutional Feedback Report” prepared by YÖKAK regarding the external assessment of higher education institutions with the public. In addition, accreditation decisions given by accreditation institutions authorized or recognized by YÖKAK also show that the quality assurance of the program qualifications is provided. YÖKAK conducts regular review activities regarding the qualifications determined in accordance with its legislation.
