Watch the demo video of application process
Selection
- Students are selected by their sending higher education institution in a fair and transparent way.
- Selection is done based on 75% Academic achievement + 25% Language score.
- In addition to academic achievement and language score, if the applicant has benefited from Summer Exchange program while pursuing the same level of academic degree, 10 points will be subtracted from the total average score.
- If a student fails to submit the commitment letter to confirm his/her attendance in Summer Exchange program within the timeframe given by OIP, 10 points will be deducted when the student applies for Summer Exchange program in the future.
- After being selected, students who wish to renounce their right to participate are responsible of informing OIP via email (kuapp@ku.edu.tr) by the deadline set by OIP. If students do not inform OIP, a reduction of -10 points will be implemented from their application if they apply to Summer Exchange program in the future. A student, who cancels his/her participation after submitting his/her commitment letter and/or being nominated to a partner university, will face 10 point deduction from his/her application if he/she applies to Summer Exchange program in the future. These rules might be considered invalid if there is a “force majeure” situation that a student is facing. Under such circumstances, the student is responsible of informing OIP with the supporting documents/information regarding the “force majeure” situation in a timely fashion.
- The OIP calculates and lists the average score of each applicant based on the calculation explained above.
- All applicants are ranked from the highest to the lowest, and the top scoring students are selected depending on faculty quotas, by the selection committee.
Announcement of Results
Results are notified to all applicants in a written format via e-mail and OIP website, and are also announced on OIP’s Bulletin Board.
Placement results are also announced on Kuapp system. To view your results, you may log into your Kuapp account at kuapp.ku.edu.tr.
The following would help you understand your status on kuapp:
- “Coordinator Approved” notification on your KUAPP system means; your documents are checked and approved. It does not mean that you are selected for now.
- If your status has been changed to “Accepted”, congratulations! The school you have been placed into must be seen on the system. Please hand in your commitment letter to OIP immediately.
- If your status has been changed to “Substitute”, you are wait-listed for all of your school preferences, not just for one that we have determined randomly. These people will be placed after the students who have already been placed do not turn their contracts in the office on time and therefore declare that they reject the mobility.
- Being placed into a Summer exchange partner does not guarantee your eventual acceptance from the host university. The partner universities reserve the right to accept/reject student applications for exchange. Your acceptance will be valid only after their confirmation.
Right to Appeal
Selected candidates will not have more than seven days to accept or reject the offered grant via kuapp@ku.edu.tr
If your application was neither selected for a grant nor included in the substitute list, you will be informed about the reasons and have at least one week to appeal against this decision to the Selection Committee of Koc University via kuapp@ku.edu.tr .
Nomination & Application to Host University

Application to Host University
- The requirements for application may vary for each institution.

Make sure that you include any other supplementary documents that are required by your host institution. Note that the application forms may be online. Information as to the exact application procedure can be found on each school’s application form or website.

This will help secure the safe receipt of your application on time. Please also be informed that the process of application to the host institutions must be handled individually by yourself. Our Office does not post application documents to host institutions.
- Another document that partner institutions might request during your application is a copy of your passport. If you do not have a passport or you need to extend it when you submit an application, please download your “student letter” via e-devlet and use that document for passport fee exemption when you apply for a passport.
- Expect to receive your Letter of Acceptance from your host institution no later than two months prior to your departure date. On many occasions, the acceptance letters are first received by our Office and then forwarded to students. If you receive your letter of acceptance directly, please bring a copy of it to our Office.
