Each student is required to register for courses at the beginning of the semester and must attend at least 70% of the lectures and 80% of the practical sessions to be eligible to take the final exam. Students are subject to at least one midterm exam and an end-of-semester exam for each course. The contribution of the midterm exam (which may include points from assignments, laboratory exams, presentations, etc., as part of the midterm score) to the final grade is 40%, while the contribution of the end-of-semester exam is 60%. All exams are graded out of 100 points. A minimum score of 50 is required on the end-of-semester exam. Students who receive one of the following letter grades AA, BA, BB, CB, or CC are considered to have successfully passed the course. DC and DD grades are considered conditionally successful.

In order to monitor the quality of higher education programs;

• YÖK is responsible for planning, organizing, managing and supervising the education and training and other activities carried out 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, which include quantitative and qualitative evaluations of higher education institutions, are shared with the public by YÖK.

• YÖK publishes the “Foundation Higher Education Institutions Report” containing academic, administrative and financial data of foundation higher education institutions every year. These reports, which include quantitative and qualitative evaluations of foundation higher education institutions, are shared with the public by YÖK. 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 issues.

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

2. Measurement-Evaluation: How the measurement and evaluation of the learning outcomes that each undergraduate program will provide to students will be carried out 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 Evaluation: In the context of continuous monitoring, higher education institutions enter the “Internal Institutional Evaluation 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 for the external evaluation of higher education institutions with the public. In addition, accreditation decisions made 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 the legislation.
