Detailed application timeline and recommended actions
January – March 2025: Primary recruitment and application submission
Focus on converting leads into applications during the standard window (13 Feb – 12 Mar 2025).
- Launch targeted campaigns to submitted prospects three weeks before 13 February.
- Provide a clear document checklist and templates for transcripts and passports to reduce resubmission.
- Prepare conditional offer templates and language proficiency guidance so admissions can issue fast decisions.
- Tip: Retarget applicants who missed the main window immediately for the late window (18–20 Mar 2025).
April – August 2025: Post-offer follow-up and logistics
Focus: acceptance confirmations, visa guidance, and pre-arrival communications.
- Confirm deposits where required; provide step-by-step payment instructions.
- Coordinate with dormitory services for scholarship students (they must apply 1–7 Sep 2025).
- Begin orientation schedules and course registration guidance for international students.
September 2025: Registration month (critical)
Electronic registration: 11–15 Sep 2025 (use e-Devlet where applicable). In-person registration: 11–17 Sep 2025. Dorm deposit payments: 10–15 Sep 2025.
- Use automated reminders (SMS, email, WhatsApp) to push registrants into the e-Devlet window early in that week.
- Ensure students have Yeditepe student numbers (esorgulama lookup) ready before arrival.
- Coordinate on-campus welcome teams and a walk-in desk for last-minute issues.
October – November 2025: Course adjustments and tuition processing
- DGS placements: 22–23 Oct 2025
- Graduate add/drop close: 17 Oct 2025
- Installment tuition processes: begin 5 Nov 2025
- Track DGS placement outcomes and update student records in your CRM.

Document checklist and verification workflow (operational)
Essential documents
Collect the following before initial offer where possible to reduce processing time:
- High school diploma or bachelor’s/master’s diploma — certified copy
- Full academic transcripts with English/Turkish translations (if applicable)
- Passport copy (bio page)
- Proof of language proficiency (English/Turkish tests, or documented conditional admissions)
- Passport-size photograph
- Acceptance letter (issued by Yeditepe or generated internally for conditional offers)
- Visa documentation and proof of funds for consular submissions (where required)
Verification workflow
- Intake: Applicant uploads documents to your secure portal.
- Preliminary audit: Admissions officer checks for completeness against checklist.
- Request corrections: Automated messages ask for missing items within 72 hours.
- Credential authentication: Use centralized verification services or university e-systems.
- Finalize offer: Issue final offer and instruct for registration (include precise e-Devlet and in-person steps).
Common document pitfalls and how to avoid them
- Missing translations — provide certified translation partners and templates.
- Unclear transcript grading scales — request grading key or use a conversion guideline.
- Expired passports — flag and request renewal early.
- Language proof gaps — advise applicants to book tests in time or use conditional admission routes.
Category-specific guidance — foreign students, scholarship holders, DGS and Erasmus
Foreign (international) applicants
International applicants typically follow centralized ÖSYM/YÖK processes for undergraduate/graduate admissions timed for September registration, or program-specific calendars for exchange or graduate entry. Ensure applicants are aware of the standard application window (13 Feb – 12 Mar 2025) and the late window.
Scholarship students and dormitory applicants
Dorm applications for scholarship students: 1–7 Sep 2025 with deposit payments 10–15 Sep 2025.
Tip: Guarantee rooms by coordinating scholarship confirmations before September and pushing a dorm application checklist to successful scholarship recipients.
DGS (Vertical Transfer) applicants
DGS additional placements: 22–23 Oct 2025 (until 23:59). Admissions teams should prepare to ingest placements and adjust offers quickly.
Erasmus and international mobility
Fall nominations: 15 Mar–15 Jun (nomination deadline 30 Jun). Spring nominations: 15 Sep–15 Dec (nomination deadline 30 Dec). Work with partner institutions to ensure nomination windows are respected and mobility agreements are updated prior to those dates.
Expert tips for recruiters, admissions teams, HR and marketing professionals
For international student recruiters and placement agencies
- Start documentation checks during lead qualification to reduce time-to-offer.
- Use conditional offers to secure high-yield candidates while they complete language or credential requirements.
- Build pre-arrival packages — visa, accommodation, health insurance — and share them early.
For university admissions teams
- Automate deadline reminders and document verification workflows to reduce manual processing.
- Maintain a “deadline dashboard” with key windows (application, registration, dorm, DGS, Erasmus) and integrate it into your CRM.
- For program-specific needs (e.g., medicine or health sciences), coordinate with internal departments for quicker decisions and capacity checks. Consider benchmarking recruitment practices with peer institutions such as Istinye University, Medipol University, or Ozyegin University.
For HR and marketing in higher education
- Align marketing campaigns to application windows; run “countdown” drip campaigns leading into 13 February and again before the September registration week.
- Highlight logistical support (registration assistance, dorm guarantees, payment guidance) in messaging to increase applicant confidence.
- Use data-driven segmentation (by country, program interest, funding status) to prioritize high-yield outreach.
