Full scholarships cover all tuition fees and, in many cases, include the mandatory preparatory English year where applicable. These awards are typically reserved for top-ranked admits or students with outstanding international credentials. Retention requires a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.00 and adherence to conduct standards.

• 50% — common across many programs and a standard offering for many admits.
• 75% — often awarded to top cohort performers (1st/2nd) depending on departmental allocation.
• 25% — may be offered to holders of certain international diplomas (for example, IB 32+ or strong Abitur results), particularly when Yeditepe is listed among top preferences.

Departmental excellence awards typically use an internal ranking model:

75% for 1st in cohort; 50% for 2nd; 25% for 3rd.

Athletes or university sports team members may also receive 50% scholarships based on verified performance contributions.

Certain faculties (for example, English Language and Literature) allocate scholarships specifically for high-ranking entrants. Rules, quotas and distribution vary by department and are confirmed each admissions cycle by the university.

• Scholarships are primarily merit-based, awarded for academic performance, international diplomas (IB, Abitur), standardized achievements and cohort ranking.
• Duration: for many 4-year undergraduate programs, scholarships can cover defined periods such as 10 semesters (covering preparatory year plus degree years), depending on the program.
• Minimum academic requirement for continuation: maintain a 2.00 GPA.
• Scholarships are revoked if a student’s GPA falls below 2.00 or if disciplinary violations occur. Reinstatement may be possible if eligibility is regained per committee rules.
• Final decisions and exceptions are made by Yeditepe’s scholarship committee and Board of Trustees.

• Recipients often receive priority access to student exchange opportunities (Erasmus and ECTS-compatible programs).
• Financial support measures for hardship may be available after the freshman year, typically subject to a minimum CGPA (2.00) and committee review.
• Department allocations and guaranteed options should be verified via official university channels each cycle; recruitment teams must confirm departmental quotas early.

Prioritize applicants with:

• Strong pre-university GPAs and recognized international diplomas (IB, Abitur).
• High placement in their graduating cohort (1st–3rd).
• Documented extracurricular achievement (sports, competitions, research).

Tip: Integrate scholarship eligibility criteria into CRM lead scoring and your internal communications workflow to surface high-value candidates earlier.

Applicants who list Yeditepe among their top preferences may become eligible for specific partial scholarships. Encourage high-value applicants to place Yeditepe among principal choices during application submission to increase department-specific award chances.

Standardize document checklists for applicants:

• Official secondary diploma or international diploma equivalent.
• Transcript and cohort ranking documentation (where applicable).
• Proof of extracurricular achievements, awards or sports participation.

Use integrated workflows and verification processes to accelerate dossier completion and scholarship assessment.

Scholarships are allocated annually. Deadlines and allocation windows are announced by the university. The Board of Trustees sets annual policy directions; the scholarship committee manages day-to-day assessments and awards. Ensure candidates submit complete applications before faculty-specific deadlines to be considered for the full range of awards.
