According to Samsun University Undergraduate and Associate Degree Education Regulation:

In order to take the semester/end-of-year exam of a course, the attendance requirement must be fulfilled.

There is no make-up exam for the end-of-term and make-up exams.

The make-up exam is taken by students who have earned the right to take the end-of-term exam but did not take these exams with or without an excuse, and by students who took them but failed.

The score obtained from the make-up exam is evaluated as the end-of-term exam score.

End-of-term and make-up exams are held on the dates specified in the academic calendar.

Exams can also be held on Saturdays and Sundays with the decision of the relevant unit's board of directors.

The exam score of the course that the student took despite not having the right to take it due to absenteeism or other reasons is considered invalid.

The total weight of the mid-term evaluations of a course is not less than 40% and not more than 60%; The types and numbers of mid-term studies, the contribution of mid-term studies to the success grade, and the proportions of the contributions of the mid-term exam to the success grade are finalized after the proposal of the instructor who will teach the course one week before the beginning of the semester, the positive opinion of the relevant department head, and the decision of the unit management board, and are defined in the student information management system by the instructor.

The success grade of a course is determined by the mid-term exams, quizzes, fieldwork, practice, homework, project, workshop, seminar, class attendance, laboratory, and mid-term studies related to that course, and the final exam. At least one mid-term exam and a final exam are mandatory. However, depending on the nature of the course, it may be decided not to hold a mid-term/final exam with the approval of the relevant unit boards.

A student who receives one of the grades (AA), (BA), (BB), (CB), (CC), and (DC) from each course is considered to have passed that course; a student who receives the grades (DD), (FF), and (FD) is considered to have failed that course.
