Istanbul Aydın University MBA in English updated deadlines

What these deadlines mean for international applicants and admissions workflows

Applicant timeline (recommended)

• 4–6 months before intake: Begin outreach and eligibility screening.
• 3–4 months before intake: Start document collection and language/proficiency checks.
• 2–3 months before intake: Submit full application (well before the final application window closes).
• Final registration window: Confirm tuition payment, attend orientation registration, and complete visa support documentation.

Admissions team responsibilities

• Pre-screen applications upon receipt and run document verification checks.
• Issue conditional offers quickly to secure applicants before quotas close.
• Provide clear payment and visa timelines during final registration windows.

Documentation checklist for MBA in English applicants

Ensure applicants prepare the following (typical requirements — confirm any program-specific needs):

• Bachelor’s diploma and transcripts (official translations if applicable)
• Proof of English proficiency (TOEFL/IELTS or institutional alternatives)
• Curriculum Vitae / Resume
• Statement of Purpose (SOP) or motivation letter
• Two academic or professional references (if required)
• Passport copy
• Passport-sized photographs
• Receipt or proof of tuition payment (for final registration)

Academic calendar and important semester dates

Admission deadlines are only part of the calendar. Admissions, orientation, registration and class start dates are critical to communicate to applicants and to synchronize recruiter workflows.

Example: Spring semester 2025 (illustrative)

• Course registration: February 10–18, 2025
• Courses begin: February 17, 2025

Admissions teams and recruiters should confirm the current academic calendar for the intake year to align onboarding, accommodation assistance, and orientation planning. For program-specific exceptions (e.g., accelerated cohorts, professional tracks) always verify with the official academic calendar and program office.

How recruiters, admissions teams and agencies should use these deadlines — an operational playbook

For international student recruiters

• Build a campaign timeline: launch marketing and lead capture 4 months before applications open.
• Use segmented messaging: prospective international candidates need visa timelines, language requirements, and living-cost expectations.
• Prioritize high-probability leads: push them to submit early to avoid quota closures.

For university admissions teams

• Implement a two-stage review: initial eligibility check within 72 hours, full review within 10 business days.
• Offer conditional pre-acceptance letters for candidates missing non-essential documentation to secure their seat.
• Maintain clear reporting on quota status and share with partner recruiters and agents.

For HR and marketing professionals in education

• Highlight program strengths (120 ECTS, modern business skills, international classroom) in recruitment materials.
• Use result-oriented case studies and alumni outcomes to build trust among recruiters and applicants.
• Coordinate digital campaigns with admissions timelines to maximize conversion in the weeks leading to the final registration window.

For placement agencies and partner networks

• Keep a rolling tracker of quota availability and offer candidates an “early-bird” assistance package (document checks, application submission, visa support).
• Provide applicants with a clear timeline for payment and registration to ensure compliance with final registration dates.
