• Exams are measured out of 100 points. Midterm and final exam results of a course are shown with numerical scores. The score for exams that the student does not take is zero.
• The midterm exam score average is determined by dividing the sum of the scores the student received in the midterm exams by the number of midterm exams taken. The half number found in this way is rounded to the nearest whole number.
• Raw success score is calculated by adding 40% of the average score of midterm exams to 60% of the term or year-end exam score in units that provide education on the basis of course passing. In units that provide education on the basis of grade/year passing, the contribution to midterm and term or year-end exams is determined by the decision of the unit's board of directors and the approval of the Senate. This rate can be at most 60% for midterm exams and at least 40% for term or final exams. In calculating the odds, fractions are kept as they are, but in calculating the raw success score, half-half numbers are rounded to the nearest whole number. Exams are given in written form. Upon the request of the department, the relevant committees may decide to conduct the exam as oral, oral-written, portfolio, homework, research, project, interview, performance evaluation, process evaluation and/or presentation such as self/peer/group evaluation. This decision is announced in the information form given to students at the beginning of the semester.
• Raw success grades are determined according to the preferences of the units, using one of the relative grade conversion methods, the principles of which are determined by the Senate, or through the absolute grade conversion tables determined by the units.
• The 4-point system letter grades and grade points used at the university are shown in the table below:

To be successful in a course, the passing grade must be at least CC or higher.

In order to supervise the quality of higher education programmes;

•YÖK is responsible of planning, organising, managing and supervising higher education institution's educational and other activities. •YÖK prepares "University Monitoring and Evaluation Reports" within its own criteria and publishes these reports annually. YÖK prepares reports that include qualitative and quantitative evaluations of higher education institutions in accordance with these annual reports and shares them with general public.

•The "Foundation Higher Education Institutions Report", which includes academic, administrative and financial data of foundation higher education institutions, is published by YÖK annually. These reports, which include quantitative and qualitative evaluations made for foundation higher education institutions, are shared with the public by YÖK.

Quality assurance of undergraduate programs in higher education is provided according to "Procedures and Principles for Quality Assurance of Higher Education Diploma Programmes":

1. Establishment and Approval of Curricula 

YÖK determines the minimum standards and criteria required to open undergraduate programmes in higher education institutions.

1.1. In higher education institutions, the curriculum of undergraduate programmes and the learning outcomes each program will bring to the student are determined by the senates of higher education institutions in accordance with the basic principles determined by YÖK on these issues. 

1.2. After the curriculum of National Core Education Programmes is accepted by the relevant Deans Council, it is implemented by higher education institutions with the approval of YÖK.

2.Assessment and Evaluation: How to measure and evaluate the learning outcomes that each undergraduate programme will bring to the student is carried out in accordance with the teaching and examination regulations prepared by higher education institutions in accordance with the basic principles determined by YÖK.

3. Certification: Students enrolled in undergraduate programmes who successfully complete the course credits and other obligations determined by higher education institutions; receive an undergraduate diploma.

4. Self-Evaluation-External Evaluation: In the context of continuous monitoring, higher education institutions enter the "Internal Evaluation Reports" of the previous year into the Information System prepared by the Higher Education Quality Board (YÖKAK) at the beginning of each year. YÖKAK shares the "Institutional Feedback Report" prepared for the external evaluation of higher education institutions. In addition, the accreditation decisions made by the accreditation bodies authorized or recognized by YÖKAK also show that the quality of programmes' qualifications is assured. YÖKAK carries out regular review activities regarding the qualifications determined in accordance with its legislation.

Teaching programs of Science, Literature, Science-Literature, Language and History-Geography Faculties are accredited by the Association for Evaluation and Accreditation of University Programs in Mathematical, Natural and Social Sciences (FEDEK).
