Publicity days of universities will be held 'online'

Just a short time before the Higher Education Institutions Exam, universities started introductory days for candidate students. Guidance Specialist Elif Aluç Gülşen, who stated that promotions will be held online this year as well as university visits due to the coronavirus epidemic, said: “Prospective students will be able to contact faculty members of the departments they are interested in during the publication days that are broadcast live on the social media accounts of the universities.”

After the date of Higher Education Institutions Exam (YKS) was updated between 27-28 June 2020, universities started introductory days for prospective students. The promotions to be made are also being held online this year due to the Covid-19 outbreak. Elif Aluç Gülşen, a Guidance Specialist speaking about the "Online Promotion Days" which will start tomorrow at Istanbul Gelisim University, said: “With the introductory days, information will be provided on the departments of universities, foreign language opportunities, accommodation and scholarship opportunities, social, cultural, sports activities, campus life and academics. Promotions will start live every day at 16:00.”

“TO BE COMMUNICATED WITH TEACHING STAFF”
  
Guidance Specialist Elif Aluç Gülşen stated that every year, university promotion days are organized in order to help students' vocational and university preferences, but this year these activities are organized online due to the coronavirus epidemic: “Prospective students will be able to contact faculty members of the departments they are interested in during the publication days that are broadcast live on the social media accounts of the universities.”
 
“MORE CANDIDATES WILL BE ABLE TO PREFER UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS”

Gülşen stated that more candidates may prefer undergraduate programs by drawing the dam, which is 180 in the related score type, to 170, said: “This is estimated to be around 112,000-195,000 candidates. However, the mass that will be affected by the change of the dam will be more of the students who have a dam problem in the AYT (Field Proficiency Test) session of the exam.”
 
“STUDENTS HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO PREPARE”

Guidance Specialist Elif Aluç Gülşen, who stated that the changes made on the exam date would not face a situation such as students' lack of training, said: “A number of changes were made in the exam curriculum for this year. Topics covered in the second semester of the 12th grade were removed from the exam curriculum. This situation also caused some differences in the graduation procedures of 12th grade students. In the 2019 - 2020 academic year, first semester grades will be valid. The year-end score will be determined by the grades taken in the first semester. Students with a year-end success score of 50 will be able to pass the class directly. 12th grade students who are required to pass the class will be able to get a diploma and graduate. Having 12th grade students having failed or responsible courses will not be an obstacle for them to enter YKS. In this case, students who have settled in the university will have the right to submit their diplomas to the higher education institution where they study until the end of December. Secondary education achievement scores of 12th grade students; Year-end grades for the first semester of 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th grades will be calculated by calculating the arithmetic average.”

“NO NEED TO EXPERIENCE EXTRA PANIC”

Stating that the last 100 meters of the marathon, which has been carried out for a year, has been reached, Abdülkadir Gayretli, Chairman of the Board of Trustees of Istanbul Gelisim University, said: “Because of the hot weather and epidemics, we cannot relax our work. For this reason, candidate students are required to solve subject-based or general trials frequently. Deficiencies can be detected and resolved in a short time. Students should now pay attention to sleep and eating patterns. It is necessary to create this routine so that our biological clock can comfortably adapt to the exam day. Somehow we must solve the experiment in the environment and conditions that are suitable for the actual exam conditions. Another factor that we should pay attention to in this process is “Being positive”. It will be beneficial for us to move silently away from environments where there are negative conversations. Based on the statement of YÖK President Prof. Dr. Yekta Saraç, "An advantageous exam has been formulated", students do not need to experience any extra panic due to the process we are in.
