Please read this mail attentively.
First of all please remember that Mevlana Exchange Program is not a full scholarship program. Both
our university and the Council of Higher Education took some serious steps to avoid some problems
again. Our university cannot accept students to the departments which do not offer courses in
English. Please ignore this warning if the student is fluent in Turkish. Please pay attention if the
student applied to the right department while receiving applications. Please also visit the webpage
of ECTS Course Information Package of our university: https://ects.ogu.edu.tr

Applications without a language proficiency test report in English or Turkish will not be
accepted.
Application of each student must be sent scanned in one PDF file in the same order.
Application forms filled by hand, wrong or with missing information will not be accepted.
Applications with missing documents will not be accepted.
Each PDF document must be named with the student’s name and surname.
As you know accommodation was one of the main problems. Unfortunately despite all efforts
students were not satisfied. Starting from 2015/2016 academic year incoming students and academic
staff are responsible for their own accommodation in all means. Neither our university nor Mevlana
Exchange Program provides accommodation.
Students and academic staff must apply for a visa.
Students and academic staff must have a health insurance from an international insurance company
valid in Turkey. Neither our university nor Mevlana Exchange Program provides healthcare. This
matter is not negotiable. All successful attendants must send the scanned version of their health
insurance policy in English before booking their plane ticket.
Health insurance is obligatory for residential permission. Please find the details of health insurance
terms below. Our university does not deal with the health problems of the attendants. Every
attendant is responsible to have a health insurance.
