1) Exams are measured out of 100 points. The midterm and final exam results of a course are shown with a numerical score. The scores of exams that the student does not take are zero.

(2) The midterm exam score average is determined by dividing the total scores the student received in the midterm exams by the number of midterm exams taken. The half number found in this way is rounded to the nearest whole number.

(3) Raw success score is calculated by adding 40% of the midterm exam score to 60% of the term or year-end exam score in units that provide education and training based on the course passing principle. In units that provide education and training based on the class/year passing principle, the contribution rate of midterm exams and term or year-end exams is determined by the decision of the unit management board and the approval of the Senate. This rate can be a maximum of 60% for midterm exams and a minimum of 40% for term or year-end exams. Fractions are kept the same in the calculation of the rates, but half-numbers are rounded to the nearest whole number in the calculation of the raw success score. Exams are conducted in written form. However, upon request from the departments, the relevant boards may decide that the exam will be conducted as oral, oral-written, portfolio, homework, research, project, interview, performance evaluation, self/peer/group evaluation, and/or presentation. This decision is announced in the information form given to students at the beginning of the semester.

(5) The 4-point system success grades and coefficients used in the university are shown in the table below

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.
