STANBUL EHR UNIVERSITY: QUICK FACTS

SCHOLARSHIP OPPORTUNITIES FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS

Shorten your duration of study: At stanbul ehir University, as common practice in Turkey, all undergraduate programs are 4 years. However, students may shorten this time by taking courses in summer school. EHR summer school courses are very popular among our current international students as unlike many other universities, the scholarships awarded also cover the summer term. IELTS is our proficiency exam: The medium of instruction is English in all departments (excluding the Department of Turkish Language and Literature, College of Law and Masters program in Management where the 70% of the classes are held in Turkish). Students who submit official test score of IELTS 6 (or TOEFL iBT 79) at the time of enrolment will be able to directly start in their faculties. All students with insufficient level of English will go through one year of English Preparatory Program and will need to obtain satisfactory grades in IELTS exam administered by EHR. Take advantage of common core curriculum: All undergraduate programs will follow a common core curriculum in the first year of study which aims to equip the students with interdisciplinary critical thinking in both social and natural sciences. Drive your curiosity by doing a double major and possibly a minor: Upon successful completion of the first year, students will be given the chance to change their departments if they wish. Double Major and Minor Programs are also two other options students may benefit from. In the Double Major Program successful students will be able to follow two undergraduate programs and receive two diplomas. The objective of this program is to provide students with the opportunity to graduate with an additional major in another discipline within the duration of their 4-year program. The Minor Program is offered to successful undergraduate students who desire to gain knowledge in another field of interest while pursuing their major studies.
