c) The success grade of a course is obtained by taking the percentage of the final exam grade, provided that the grade obtained as a result of in-semester exams and measurement systems is not less than 40% and not more than 60%.

d) The instructor of the course is obliged to announce to the students at the beginning of the semester; the content of the course, all kinds of measurement types that will be the basis for calculating the success grade.

e) Students are required to retake the failed compulsory or elective courses. However, if these courses are removed from the program, the relevant department/program determines which course to take.

f) The student must take the failed course with priority.

g) In the semester in which the student repeats the failed course, the attendance requirement for that course is not required.

a) Grades are given out of 100.

b) Courses with letter grades of AA, BA, BB, CB, CC are considered successful.

c) Courses with DD and DC letter grades are considered successful if the GPA is 2.00 and above (conditional pass) in Associate Degree programs.

Grade Point Average:

The grade determined by dividing the sum of the coefficient of the success grade of the courses taken in a semester by the sum of the separate products of the ECTS values of those courses by the sum of the ECTS values of those courses is called Semester Weighted Grade Point Average (WGPA). The division is calculated by taking two digits after the comma and rounding to the upper value. The grade calculated by applying it to all courses taken is called the General Weighted Average (GANO).
