Graduate Scholarships

As of the 2024-2025 academic year, the implementation of tuition fee waivers and scholarships for students enrolled in graduate programs will be as follows: 

Tuition Waiver Scholarships 

Students accepted into graduate programs may be granted a tuition fee waiver scholarship of up to 100%, based on the decision of the relevant Graduate School Executive Board and the approval of the Vice Rector. These scholarships may be modified by the decision of the Graduate School Executive Board at the end of each semester based on the student’s academic performance. There may also be a total semester limit for these scholarships.

Academic Training Scholarships

Students accepted into graduate programs and deemed eligible for the academic training scholarship may be provided with a 100% tuition fee waiver, additional stipend scholarships, and, if available, free accommodation in university dormitories, based on the recommendation of the relevant Graduate School Director and the approval of the Vice Rector. The continuation of these scholarships is contingent upon the students’ overall academic performance and receiving a passing grade in the Academic Practice course. These scholarships may also have a total semester limit and a monthly limit within the academic year.

Part-Time Academic Work

For students who are Turkish citizens and receive stipend scholarships under the academic training scholarship, a payment will be made for 15 hours of part-time academic work per week. This payment is based on the graduate student part-time hourly rate recommended by the Human Resources department and approved by the Vice Rector, in accordance with Article 46 of Law No. 2547. The continuation of these payments is contingent upon the students fulfilling their academic duties at the expected level, maintaining overall academic success, and passing the Academic Practice course.
