Direction to University
Near East University places a strong emphasis on career readiness by facilitating internship placements and career development programs. The university’s Career Center connects students with internships in various industries, from business and law to healthcare and engineering.

Campus life at NEU is exciting and active. There are many student clubs, sports activities, and cultural events for students to enjoy. The campus has modern facilities like libraries, gyms, and cafes to make student life comfortable. There are also festivals, competitions, and academic seminars held often, so students can learn and have fun at the same time.

NEU’s medical and dentistry programs are accredited locally by YÖK (Turkey) and YÖDAK (Northern Cyprus). However, global recognition depends on your home country. For example, graduates planning to work in Germany or the UK often need to pass equivalency exams. Always check with your country’s medical council before enrolling.

NEU offers generous scholarships, but to keep them, you must maintain a minimum GPA (usually 2.0 out of 4.0). If you drop below that, your scholarship can be partially or fully revoked the following semester. Many students are caught off-guard by this policy, especially in demanding programs like Pharmacy or Engineering.

While many programs are advertised in English, the language of instruction may vary depending on the department and class demographics. In courses with mostly Turkish-speaking students, some professors tend to switch partially to Turkish — especially in non-health departments. Ask current students in your faculty for honest insights.

Yes. Most students enter Northern Cyprus with a tourist visa and then apply for a student residency permit after registration. NEU provides support for this process, but delays or incomplete paperwork can lead to fines or issues with future travel. Start the permit process immediately after arriving.

4o

Yes, NEU allows internal transfers between faculties, but approval depends on available space in the new department and your academic performance. Some faculties — especially Medicine, Dentistry, and Law — have stricter transfer requirements and may only accept students with high GPAs and faculty approval.
