Do I need to renew my registration every semester? Do I need to apply in person for the registration renewal process? Students continuing their education must renew their registration at the beginning of each academic year's fall and spring semesters, following the instructions in the announcements made on the university's website during the dates specified in the academic calendar. After completing the registration renewal process online, students must go in person to their academic advisor to complete the registration approval process on the announced dates. Students who cannot complete the registration approval process due to valid reasons may have their legal representatives carry out the process on their behalf. (A notarized power of attorney is required.)
What is the passing grade for classes/semesters? What happens if I fall below this grade? Students must take all courses offered in the first two semesters of their program. From the third semester onwards, the normal credit load a student can take each semester is specified in their program. Students with a cumulative GPA below 2.00 can register for courses up to the normal credit load (30 ECTS) for that semester. Students with a cumulative GPA of 2.00 or above can register for courses up to 50% more than the normal credit load (45 ECTS). These cumulative GPA thresholds, which determine the credit load a student can take, apply to the end of each semester.
My remedial course overlaps with another. Can I take a course from another program? If a student’s desired courses overlap, a regular program student may register for the lower semester course in the evening program; an evening program student may register for the lower semester course in the regular program.
Is it mandatory to attend summer school? Summer school is offered to allow students to retake courses they failed in the fall or spring semesters; to help students raise their cumulative GPA; to give students the opportunity to take courses they could not register for in the fall or spring semesters; and to allow successful students to take courses from higher semesters. Attendance at summer school is optional for students.
How many courses can I register for in summer school? Can I take a course I did not take during the semester? Students can register for a maximum of four courses in summer school. They may register for courses they did not take or failed during the fall and spring semesters.
Can I take higher-level courses in the fall and spring semesters and summer school? Students with a cumulative GPA of 3.00 or higher who meet the success criteria may select courses from higher semesters. The success criteria require that the student has no failed or unregistered courses.
Can I take courses from another university if a course is not offered in summer school or is canceled due to insufficient enrollment? If a course is not offered in the university's summer school or cannot be registered for, students may take a course from another university's summer school if the credit and course content are deemed appropriate by the relevant Department Chair. Students from other universities may also benefit from our university's summer school.
When can I take the single course exam? When should I apply to take the exam? At the end of the fall semester, spring semester, or summer school (if applicable), students who have completed the attendance requirement for all courses but received an FF or YZ grade in one course, or have passed all courses but have not achieved the necessary GPA to graduate, are granted the right to take a make-up exam for just one course on dates specified in the academic calendar. However, students who cannot raise their cumulative GPA to 2.00 with the exam result are not granted this right. Students eligible to take the exam must apply in writing to their respective departments at least five business days before the make-up exam date specified in the academic calendar.
Is there an attendance requirement for the fall and spring semesters and summer school? Students must attend 70% of theoretical courses and 80% of practical work in the fall, spring semesters, and summer school. Students who do not meet this requirement will receive a DZ (Absent) grade and will not be allowed to take the exam.
I missed the midterm/final exam due to a valid reason. What should I do to take the make-up exam? Applications related to valid reasons must be made in writing to the Faculty Dean's Office within five business days from the start of the valid reason period, either in person, by fax, or through other methods determined by the relevant university authorities. For applications made by fax, the original document must be submitted to the Dean's Office within five business days. Applications made after this period will be invalid. However, for health reports, this period starts from the date the rest report is issued.
How can I reach the teaching staff? You can find the contact information for teaching staff by checking http://rehber.bilecik.edu.tr/ or through the faculty's web page. Especially when you need to contact your advisor regarding registrations, it is preferable to send an email instead of making a phone call, as this will reduce the volume of inquiries and improve the quality of service you receive.
Can I learn the registration, renewal, and exam dates? You can find all the dates in the Academic Calendar section of the university's website.
Is it possible for me to access the content, flow, and resources of the course I am taking or have taken? You can access the course contents and credits at http://ebs.bilecik.edu.tr/.
