I wish I had known...
Red-tape at foreign universities can be frustrating so be prepared to deal with some issues beyond your control. Plan everything on time and never miss a deadline. The school's international students office is pretty good at helping you out, but only if you seek it yourself and remain persistent. Turks are very helpful and friendly :)

Personal recommendation
It's arguably the best school in Turkey, and I would recommend studying here to anyone who is interested in exploring a fusion culture that has the best of the East and the West. Istanbul is an amazing asset and the people at the university are great too!

Final comments
Learn some Turkish before your arrival. Turks are known for their hospitality but unfortunately not a lot of them speak English beyond a few words. Also, be street-smart, especially if you aren't used to big cities. Don't go out alone at night until you are fully acquainted with your surroundings and the city. It can get very confusing but the bus transportation is quite good (this is where a little Turkish can go a long way!)

“Farid Novruzov”
Farid N
Turkey, Graduate
Engineering, Technology, 2023
Overall
First of all, let me introduce myself, I am Farid Novruzov and recently I get my master’s degree in Turkey(Istanbul). I have got my Bachelor’s degree from one of the best and famous Azerbaijani universities (Azerbaijan State Oil and İndustry University). I got my bachelor’s degree at the “Biomedical Engineering” faculty and I was one of the best students in my class. As I said earlier now I get my master’s degree in Turkey at the “Biotechnology” faculty and also I am one of the best students in the class.
İ have registered for the “Erasmus + Traineeship” program and I am writing this letter to inform you that I want to be a part of the internship program conducted by your organization. It will be a big fortune and a big chance of my life to go abroad and get a traineeship in your company. The results will be announced in the middle of march and I have to present my “Traineeship Offer” till that time and I hope that I will get it. I’d like to develop a great understanding of “Bioengineering” and in the future be a successful engineer and I hope that you will help me.

“The best school on Turkey”
fatma h
Turkey, Undergraduate
Engineering, Mechanical, 2023
Overall
This College is not only known for being the best communty school in Turkey, but also for offering this qualified education to students for over 250 years. It is located in one of the best districts of İstanbul, Bebek, and has the best campus with variety of plants and a mesmirizing bosphorus view. I know now i sound like presenting a hotel rather than a school but all of the activities this school offers is indeed like a hotel experience. There are more than 100 official student clubs and the count goes even more up with other gatherings of hobby/interest groups. The college also has the best academicians countrywide with educational backgrounds mostly from Ivy League schools. I can not say it offers much to a tecnical department student like engineering but for Art and Sciences the school has the best courses and research areas.

“Get the most qualified education over an astonishing view!”
Nurgül T
Turkey,

Overall
Boğaziçi University is a public university with one of the most qualified instructors and professors in Turkey and even Europe. They are devoted and hardworking people who can easily transfer to a private school anywhere in the world if they want to. But they don't. Why? Because Bogazici has had this culture for nearly 160 years with top-notch students (~ top 0.03% of University Entrance Exam), coming from all around the world. All the bright brains seem to be assembled here. And also, there are all kinds of people with different backgrounds, heritages, beliefs, races, and sexual orientations from all around Turkey with a peaceful environment. That's what makes this university so special.
