Foreign Students Examination (YÖS)

Hello. I am Assoc. Prof. İhsan KISADERE, the Deputy Director of the Balıkesir University Center for International Relations Research and Application. Since 2013, our university has been conducting its own exam called BAÜYÖSS (Balıkesir University Foreign Student Selection Exam). The candidates are given a multiple-choice test primarily consisting of mathematics and IQ questions, prepared by the university's academics. Foreign students, dual-citizenship foreign students who later acquired Turkish citizenship, and Turkish students who have completed their high school education abroad can participate in Balıkesir University's foreign student selection exam. During the application process, the exam schedule and relevant information are determined by our university and later published on our website. They should follow the university's website for up-to-date information on the exam and its general rules. Our advice to prospective students includes specifically studying mathematics and IQ questions throughout their academic period and keeping up with the latest information about the exam, especially through our university's website. We wish all candidates success in the exam and would be delighted to welcome you to our university.
