Success grade evaluations

Items 28 - (1) In undergraduate and associate degree education, a student's success in a course is determined by the relative evaluation method. This evaluation is based on a combination of the student’s performance during the semester and their grade on the final or make-up exam, while also considering the overall success level of the class. The course instructor performs a relative evaluation based on the distribution of student grades and the overall class average. The principles of the relative evaluation system are determined separately by the Senate.

(2) The success grades, coefficients, definitions and the principles regarding these grades are as follows:

a) The assessment of student success is made in accordance with the table below.

Success evaluation Letter grade Success coefficient

Very good AA 4.00

Good-Good BA 3.50

Good BB 3.00

Fair-Good CB 2,50

Medium CC 2,00

Mid-Pass DC 1.50

Pass DD 1,00

Fail FD 0,50

In order to ensure the quality of higher education programs:

The Council of Higher Education (YÖK) is responsible for the planning, regulation, management, and supervision of education, training, and other activities carried out in higher education institutions.

Each year, “University Monitoring and Evaluation Reports” are published based on criteria determined by YÖK. These reports include both quantitative and qualitative evaluations of higher education institutions and are shared with the public.

In addition, YÖK annually publishes the “Foundation Higher Education Institutions Report,” which contains academic, administrative, and financial data pertaining to foundation universities. These reports, which include quantitative and qualitative assessments of foundation higher education institutions, are also made available to the public.

The quality assurance of undergraduate programs in higher education is carried out in accordance with the “Regulations on the Quality Assurance of Higher Education Diploma Programs,” which include the following components:

1. Program Design and Approval:

1.1. YÖK determines the minimum standards and criteria required for the establishment of undergraduate departments and programs in higher education institutions.

1.3. The curricula of National Core Education Programs are implemented by higher education institutions following approval by YÖK, after being accepted by the relevant Council of Deans.

2. Assessment and Evaluation:

The methods for assessing and evaluating the learning outcomes of each undergraduate program are implemented in line with the education and examination regulations prepared by the higher education institutions, in accordance with YÖK’s fundamental principles.

3. Certification:

Students enrolled in undergraduate programs are awarded a bachelor's degree upon successful completion of the required course credits and other obligations determined by their higher education institution.

4. Self-Evaluation and External Evaluation:

As part of continuous monitoring, higher education institutions are required to enter their “Institutional Self-Evaluation Reports” for the previous year into the Information System prepared by the Higher Education Quality Council (YÖKAK) at the beginning of each year.

YÖKAK shares the “Institutional Feedback Report” regarding external evaluations of higher education institutions with the public. Accreditation decisions made by accreditation agencies authorized or recognized by YÖKAK also indicate that the quality assurance requirements of the relevant programs have been met.

In accordance with YÖKAK regulations, periodic review activities are conducted to ensure the programs’ qualifications are maintained.
