Student stories

What students say

“I chose Visual Arts here because the studios are genuinely well equipped, printmaking presses, a proper darkroom. My scholarship covered half the tuition, and the counselor explained every payment deadline in writing.”

Putri MaharaniVisual Arts · Indonesia

“The computer labs at Topkapi stay open until late, so I practice hardware assembly after classes. Living on the European side of Istanbul, my commute to campus is just two metro stops.”
