ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR GRADUATE PROGRAMS

Mechatronics Lab
All applicants of Turkish nationality must take a written entrance examination. A student applying for admission to the entrance examination for a master's program must have a bachelor's degree from a four year institution. A student applying for admission to the entrance examination for a doctoral program must have a master's degree.

Entrance examinations are given twice a year before the start of each semester. Official notices are given of the dates and places of the entrance examinations.

Each Graduate School Department (GSD) gives its own entrance examination upon the approval of the Administrative Board of the Graduate School. All entrance examinations are given in both English and Turkish for fall semesters and only in English for spring semesters. Entrance examinations generally cover basic topics in the field to which the student is seeking admission and students are free to take this examination either in English or Turkish. Applicants will also be required to take an English Proficiency Examination. Applicants must pass both the Subject Examination and the English Proficiency Examination to be admitted.

ADMISSION OF FOREIGN STUDENTS TO GRADUATE PROGRAMS
Foreign students may be admitted without taking an entrance examination. The decision to admit a foreign student to a graduate program is made by the Administrative Board of the Graduate School upon the recommendation of the GSD Chairman concerned. Foreign students applying from abroad must therefore obtain an application form from the Registrar's Office and submit the completed form together with two letters of reference and official transcripts for all graduate and undergraduate level coursework completed up to the time of application. All foreign applicants must submit their application files to the Registrar's Office.

The applicants are also required to take TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) and GRE (Graduate Record Exam) exams given by the Educational Testing Service (ETS), and they must make sure that their official TOEFL and GRE scores are forwarded to the Registrar's Office. Applicants to graduate programs in Management must take the GMAT (Graduate Management Admission Test). Applications to the Graduate School will not be considered complete without the official TOEFL and GRE/GMAT scores. However, applicants who are not able to submit TOEFL and GRE scores may take the entrance examination like Turkish applicants.

For application purposes an official transcript is defined as a record which bears the signature of the registrar and the seal of the institution.

All correspondence concerning admission should be addressed to:

IZMIR INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
Registrar's Office
35437 IZMIR / TURKEY

Foreign students eligible for admission should obtain a student visa from the nearest Turkish Consulate; an official letter of acceptance, indicating the category of admission, will be provided to them for this purpose. Every new foreign student is expected to contact the Foreign Student Advisor in the Office of the Registrar upon arrival.
ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR SPECIAL STUDENTS
The University offers a special students program for students who want to take a limited number of courses to improve their knowledge about a subject/subjects.

Special students may be admitted to the University under the following conditions.

1. Applicants are not admitted to the first year of study in the University.

2. Applicants must satisfy the Chairman of the concerned Department that their qualifications will allow them to profit from the courses. Students dismissed from universities or other institutions for disciplinary reasons and/or due to poor academic performance are not accepted.

3. Applications will be made to the Registrar who will refer the matter to the Chairman of the Department concerned. Recommendations of the Chairman are subject to the approval of the Dean of the Faculty for undergraduate studies, or the approval of the Director of Graduate School for graduate studies.

Special students are not accorded any of the rights recognized to regular full time students of the University, nor are they awarded any degree or diploma. The number of courses for which they can register is determined by the Chairman of the Department concerned.

Foreign students must hold a valid student visa and residence permit to be
registered as a special student.

All correspondence concerning admission as a transfer or special student, or to graduate programs should be addressed to:
