Every student must register for each class at the beginning of each semester and must attend at least 70% of the lecture course and at least 80% of the recitation course to get final exam. Students are subject to a midterm exam and a final exam. Shares of mid-term exam (scores gained from benchmarking tools such as assignments, quiz, lab exam may also contribute to mid-term exam score) and final exam in final score are 50 and 50 %, respectively. All exams are evaluated over 100 points. The final exam is required to obtain at least 30 points. A course in the undergraduate program of AA, BA, BB, CB and CC has received a letter grade, students are considered successful from that course. If student has DC or DD letter grade for a class, his overall weighted grade point average must be at least 2.0 to be successful for this class.

To oversee the quality of higher education programs;

YÖK is responsible for planning, organizing, managing and supervising education and training and other activities in higher education institutions.

"University Monitoring and Evaluation Reports" of higher education institutions prepared within the framework of the criteria determined by YÖK are published every year.

The reports prepared according to these reports, including quantitative and qualitative evaluations of higher education institutions, are shared with the public by YÖK.

The "Foundation Higher Education Institutions Report", which includes academic, administrative and financial data of foundation higher education institutions, is published annually by YÖK. These reports, which include quantitative and qualitative evaluations of foundation higher education institutions, are shared with the public by YÖK. Quality assurance of undergraduate programs in higher education is ensured according to the "Procedures and Principles for Ensuring Quality Assurance of Higher Education Diploma Programs":

1. Creation and Approval of Curricula:

YÖK determines the minimum standards and criteria required for the opening of 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 the student are determined by the senates of higher education institutions in accordance with the basic principles determined by YÖK on these issues.

1.3.  The curricula of the National Core Curricula are adopted by the relevant Council of Deans and implemented by higher education institutions with the approval of the Council of Higher Education.

        2. Assessment and Evaluation: The measurement and evaluation of the learning outcomes of each undergraduate program is carried out according to the teaching 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, if they successfully complete the course credits and other obligations determined by higher education institutions; receive a bachelor's diploma.

         4. Self-Assessment-External Evaluation: Higher education institutions, in the context of continuous monitoring, enter the "Institutional Internal Evaluation Reports" of the previous year into the Information System prepared by the Higher Education Quality Council (YÖKAK) at the beginning of each year.  YÖKAK shares the "Institutional Feedback Report" prepared for the external evaluation of higher education institutions with the public. In addition, accreditation decisions issued by accreditation bodies authorized or recognized by YÖKAK also indicate that the quality assurance of the qualifications of the programs is ensured. YÖKAK conducts regular review activities regarding the qualifications determined in accordance with the legislation.
