\nAdditionally, in recent years, Turkey has made significant efforts to improve the quality of education and focus on various areas such as the development of educational technologies, necessary reforms in its educational system, and the provision of study opportunities for students. These efforts have not only improved the quality of education but have also made Turkey an attractive educational destination for both domestic and international students. Below are some of the most important educational services offered by Turkish universities:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Quality of the Educational System in Turkey<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Turkey has <\/span>a large number of<\/span> universities, all of which adhere to global and advanced standards. Additionally, Turkey is a member of the Bologna Process, which aims to promote brain circulation in Europe rather than brain drain. <\/span>One of the most significant educational services <\/span>provided by Turkish universities is the quality of education in the country<\/span>.<\/span> In other words, one of the most <\/span>important<\/span> study opportunities for international students in Turkey is the recognition of Turkish university degrees across all European universities. Graduates with degrees from Turkish universities can pursue further studies at the master’s or doctoral levels in Europe more easily.<\/span><\/p>\n

    To<\/span> earn a bachelor’s degree in Turkish universities<\/span>, a four-year study program is required<\/span>. However, for professional fields such as dentistry, medicine, pharmacy, and veterinary science in Turkey, a training period of five to six years is necessary. Furthermore, <\/span>it can be said that<\/span> there are many affordable universities in Turkey where individuals, depending on their academic background, can enroll.<\/span><\/p>\n

    It is also worth noting that the educational system in Turkey is exam-based, and exams form the foundation of the country’s educational system. <\/span>Transfers to high schools and universities are made based on the results of central exams<\/span>, and according<\/span> to the education law, the system is divided into three <\/span>4-year<\/span> stages, known as the 4+4+4 system, which includes elementary, middle, and high school education, each lasting four years.<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. The Superiority of the Grading System in Turkish Universities<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Another educational service provided by Turkish universities is the grading system. It is important to know that in Turkey, the evaluation of students differs depending on the type of higher education institution or university they attend. Some universities use a letter-based grading scale for student evaluations, which includes grades such as AA, AB, and so on. This can be a significant aspect of studying in Turkey for students who are sensitive about the grading system.<\/span><\/p>\n

      Additionally, other universities, which have a higher proportion of the student population compared to others, use a numerical grading system ranging from 0 to 10. The grading system in Turkish universities that <\/span>use<\/span> a numerical scale works in such a way that a score range of 7 to 8 is generally considered equivalent to a grade B, which is regarded as relatively good and acceptable. This scale is commonly used in public universities in Turkey. The grading table for Turkish universities based on the numerical scale is as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n

      ScaleGrade DescriptionScore<\/span><\/p>\n

      9.00 \u2013 10.00 Excellent A <\/span><\/p>\n

      7.00 \u2013 8.99 Good B <\/span><\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Provision of Public and University Dormitories<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          One of the most important educational services provided by Turkish universities for international students is accommodation and student dormitories. Generally, if you plan to study in Turkey, there are various options available for accommodation. If you have experience traveling to Turkey, you will know that living in Turkey is not particularly difficult for Iranian students due to the cultural similarities. Almost all public dormitories and university dormitories in Turkey are separated for male and female students. The number of people in rooms can vary, and the prices may increase or decrease depending on the number of people sharing the room.<\/span><\/p>\n

          Private dormitories can typically be found around most universities in Turkey. Keep in mind that the facilities provided by private dormitories are superior to those of public dormitories, but their costs are higher. Those who migrate to Turkey for work purposes also have the option to stay in private dormitories.<\/span><\/p>\n

          In fact, the provision of student dormitories is another advantage of studying in Turkey. However, another accommodation option for international students is renting a house. Turkish homes are generally in the form of apartments, which typically include a large living room as well as 2 to 4 additional bedrooms. Based on the average rental rates per square meter, the average rental rates for homes in some provinces in 2024 range from 9,648 to 24,364 Turkish lira. The following table outlines accommodation costs in Turkey:<\/span><\/p>\n

              \n
            1. The Opportunity to Study in English at Turkish Universities<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              As you may know, the language of instruction in Turkey is Turkish; however, many universities in the country offer the possibility to study in a language other than Turkish. Fortunately, this option is available at both private and public universities. In fact, this is one of the most important educational services provided by Turkish universities for those who are not fluent in Turkish.<\/span><\/p>\n

              On the other hand, studying in English at Turkish universities is also possible in various fields. In other words, this opportunity is not limited to those intending to study English language programs in Turkey; applicants for fields such as medicine can also benefit from this option. It is important to note that teaching in English is offered in two different formats: one where only 30% of the program is in English and the rest is in Turkish, and another where programs, such as translation studies, are fully taught in English. Below is a list of some Turkish universities that offer programs in English:<\/span><\/p>\n

                \n
              • Ko\u00e7 University<\/span><\/li>\n

                  \n
                1. Educational Services at Turkish Universities: Student Health Insurance in Turkey<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                  Another significant aspect of studying in Turkey and the educational services provided by Turkish universities is student health insurance. International students who wish to study in Turkey must have health insurance for <\/span>the duration of<\/span> their stay in the country. <\/span>Therefore, if you <\/span>are planning<\/span> to study in Turkey, <\/span>having<\/span> student health insurance is mandatory.<\/span><\/p>\n

                  Health insurance in Turkey is a type of coverage that protects individuals from health risks and medical expenses. It typically covers consultation fees, diagnosis, and treatment <\/span>costs,<\/span> and operates on the principle of social solidarity to reduce the burden on individuals and society during emergencies.<\/span><\/p>\n

                  Additionally, health insurance in Turkey, which is part of the educational services at Turkish universities, plays a crucial role in ensuring access to quality healthcare services. Turkey has a robust healthcare system that blends both public and private sectors. The Universal Health Insurance (UHI) system offers essential medical services to all residents. Furthermore, private health insurance plans provide broader coverage and offer individuals access to a wider range of healthcare services.<\/span><\/p>\n

                  Turkey’s commitment to healthcare access <\/span>is reflected<\/span> in its evolving insurance landscape, which strikes a balance between government regulations and private schemes, ultimately contributing to the overall well-being of its population. Types of health insurance in Turkey include:<\/span><\/p>\n

                    \n
                  • Green Card Insurance (Ye\u015fil Kart)<\/span><\/li>\n
                  • Public Health Insurance<\/span><\/li>\n
                  • Social Security Insurance<\/span><\/li>\n
                  • Ba\u011fkur Insurance<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                      \n
                    1. Educational Services at Turkish Universities: Healthcare Services for Students<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                      Providing high-quality healthcare services to students is another significant benefit of studying in Turkey. All universities in Turkey have <\/span>their<\/span> health centers, which are considered part of the educational services. These centers, <\/span>commonly<\/span> known as MED\u0130KO, allow students <\/span>to easily undergo general health check-ups and medical examinations<\/span>. For specific information regarding the health center at your university, you can contact the relevant university offices.<\/span><\/p>\n

                        \n
                      1. Moreover, pharmacies in Turkey are open daily except Sundays until 7:00 PM. After 7:00 PM and on Sundays, several designated pharmacies remain open in each city. <\/span>Additionally,<\/span> emergency services at hospitals and university health centers offer round-the-clock services for urgent medical situations.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                        \"\u062e\u062f\u0645\u0627\u062a<\/p>\n

                          \n
                        1. Educational Services at Turkish Universities: Libraries in Turkey<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                          Turkey <\/span>is a country with<\/span> a rich historical and cultural heritage <\/span>that has always placed great importance on<\/span> culture, science, and education. One of the <\/span>cultural symbols of Turkey<\/span> is its large and comprehensive libraries, which provide a great opportunity for students and book enthusiasts.<\/span> In other words, one of the key educational services <\/span>provided<\/span> by Turkish universities<\/span> is access to their extensive libraries.<\/span><\/p>\n

                          For<\/span> those interested in history, culture, and art<\/span>, exploring the cultural spaces in Turkey can be fascinating. The origin of libraries dates<\/span> back to ancient times, and the development of library science can be traced to the late 19th century in Europe.<\/span> Although public interest in visiting libraries in Turkey may be relatively low, there are many large and small libraries <\/span>across the country<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

                          All of<\/span> these libraries possess valuable collections in various specialized and archival fields, making them one of the most significant facilities for students passionate about reading and research. <\/span>These libraries are <\/span>particularly<\/span> frequented by researchers and students.<\/span> Below are some of the most notable libraries in Turkey:<\/span><\/p>\n
