Can the university help me to get a visa?+

If you come from countries that require a visa to enter Turkey, you can apply for the relevant visa with your acceptance letter. If you still have any difficulties, you can always contact us. Please keep in mind that a student visa is not a requirement for your registration. You can come with a tourist or any other type of visa. If there is visa exemption between your country and Turkey, you do not need to get any kind of visa. For more information click Visa requirement page.
