Haliç University application deadlines for foreigners
Core institution-wide deadlines (annual)
- Fall semester application deadline: July 15
- Spring semester application deadline: December 15
These dates apply to both direct international applicants and institutional exchange students submitting through the Haliç University online application portal. All applications and required documents must be submitted through the university’s designated online form within these timelines.
Exchange / Erasmus nomination deadlines
- Nomination deadline for Fall: June 15
- Nomination deadline for Spring: November 15
Nomination by the partner institution must be completed by these dates to allow the university to process exchange nominations and issue acceptance documentation in time for registration and visa procedures.
TR‑YÖS and undergraduate entrance exam dates
- TR‑YÖS exam (first term, 2025): May 11, 2025
- Standard application window for the exam: February 13 – March 12, 2025
- Late application window: March 18 – March 20, 2025
Recruiters should track TR‑YÖS schedules closely and advise applicants on exam registration and preparation timelines.
Letter of Acceptance and registration timeline
- Successful applicants typically receive an official Letter of Acceptance via email within two weeks after the application deadline.
- Registration for accepted students is expected to be completed by the university’s registration deadline, usually occurring two to three days after the final application deadline for that intake (for example, Fall 2024 registrants completed registration by September 13).
Language proficiency and documentation
- Applicants must provide evidence of a minimum B1 level in the language of instruction (Turkish or English) where required.
- All required documents (passport copy, diploma, transcript, language certificate, photos) must be uploaded at the online application stage. Originals must be presented at registration.
Who needs to follow which deadline? (Practical segmentation)
Direct international applicants (undergraduate & graduate)
