The Old Way: Applying by Email
For years, international students have applied to Turkish universities by sending emails back and forth. Here is what that typically looks like:
- You find a university's admissions email on their website.
- You send an email with your documents attached (passport, diploma, photos, transcripts).
- You wait days—sometimes weeks—without knowing if they even received it.
- The university responds asking for a document you already sent, or in a different format.
- You lose track of which universities you applied to, what documents you sent where, and what deadlines are coming up.
- When you're finally accepted, the acceptance letter arrives as an email attachment that might end up in your spam folder.
Sound familiar? You're not alone. This is exactly the frustration that thousands of students face every year.
