What do candidate students expect during the additional preference period?

Students who cannot be placed in the desired department in the first choice results after the exam results are looking for a chance again with additional preferences. Specialist Psychological Counselor Elif Ünal gave some advice while conveying the process to the students who would make additional choices.

Dear candidate students, you can visit our campus to get detailed information about preference scholarship, privileged education opportunities, university experience, and uninterrupted scholarship rates on campus at Istanbul Gelisim University during the Additional Preference period.  In addition to the top 5 preference-specific 30-20% preference scholarship at Istanbul Gelisim University, you can benefit from the advantages of 10% preference scholarship on campus.

What is the additional preference period?

2024 YKS Additional preference period has started, millions of students who dream of university will want to benefit from all the opportunities and take advantage of this additional chance during the YKS preference period. This is an opportunity for students who could not settle or did not make a choice during the first choice process. Candidate students can take advantage of this opportunity by coming to Istanbul Gelisim University between 6-11 September to take advantage of additional scholarship opportunities.

What to do when the student comes to the university?

When our prospective students visit our university, they must scan the QR code and fill in the form to benefit from the 10% on-campus preference scholarship. In addition, they can get professional support from our expert preference consultants and make their preferences by benefiting from preference scholarships. Choosing with expert preference consultants during the additional preference period, which is the last opportunity for prospective students, will prevent you from making the wrong choice and increase your chances of getting into the department you want.

How is the additional preference made? When will the additional placement guide be published?

Contrary to the first choice, the additional preference is made with a score, not a ranking. The score of the student who will choose should be equal to or higher than the score of the last student who placed. 2024 Additional Preference Guide has been published by ÖSYM (Student Selection and Placement Center). The remaining quotas are specified in the published Additional Preference Guide. For instance, whether the department you want is software engineering, aircraft technology, nursing or business administration, you can compare it with your own score by looking at the score from the guide and thus add it to your preference list.
Who can / cannot make additional choices?

Candidates who are placed in a higher education program with central placement in the first preferences of 2024 cannot benefit from the right to additional placement.
Candidates who make a choice and do not qualify for enrollment in any university can benefit from the right to additional placement.

What should be done after entering additional preference transactions in the OSYM system?

Students who enter the official preference transactions through ÖSYM's website should remember that there is a fee for additional preference. After making your additional choices, you should pay a fee of 80 TL and control it through the ÖSYM system.
