• Military service: students who were doing military service on 2 October 2026 can apply within six months of their discharge. Students due to be called up during the application period can have their military service deferred.

• A scholarship does not return automatically. Whether it continues is decided by the university's governing bodies under its regulations.
• If your programme has since closed, YÖDAK can direct you to another university with an equivalent programme.

Applications go to the university where your registration was ended; if it was ended at more than one, you may apply to any one of them. Former Rauf Denktaş University students should contact the Student Affairs Office to start their application.
