Registration Frequently Asked Questions

It is aimed for students to benefit academically from the department in the best possible way and to fully reach their potential.

Missing classes regularly (except for reasons such as illness), such as a one-hour weekly conflict, negatively affects the academic benefit and success the student will gain from the courses.

Course quotas are limited by classroom capacities. Keeping a course in the schedule to drop it during the Add-Drop period prevents another student from benefiting from that quota.

It is not possible to approve schedules created with extra or non-compliant courses on the grounds that they will be fixed during the Add-Drop period. This approach results in the rejection of the schedule.

If there is a course or section that fits your schedule but you could not get approval for during the registration week, you should try to add it during the Add-Drop period.

Instead, registering for another section or course that temporarily does not fit your schedule during the registration period is not accepted.

A student creating a conflict that could otherwise be avoided by making a different choice is considered an unforced course conflict, and the schedule will be rejected.

In courses such as HTR, TK, free electives, and HSS electives, it is mandatory to choose courses and sections that do not conflict with AD-coded departmental courses.

There are no conflicts between at least one section of the compulsory courses of the same year (e.g., junior year). Course schedules are prepared accordingly.

For compulsory courses remaining from previous semesters, if there is another section that does not create a conflict, that section must be chosen.

If a conflict is unavoidable, the following rules apply:

• Those not in their graduation semester: Takes the compulsory course belonging to the lower class and leaves the other compulsory course to the subsequent semester.
• Those in their graduation semester: If there is an unavoidable conflict among compulsory courses, the schedule can be approved only in this exceptional case.

Taking and successfully completing compulsory MATH and EC courses in the semester they are required to be taken is of critical importance for academic progression and graduation.

Postponing these courses increases the probability of course conflicts in subsequent semesters. Failure to ensure regular attendance to classes also raises the risk of failure.

Every year, there are students who fail to graduate solely due to these courses despite completing all other graduation requirements.

A significant portion of students who have the right to take a single-course exam also take exams in these courses and may fail again.

It is important that MATH and EC courses that need to be taken in the freshman and sophomore years are passed when first taken, or if failed, retaken in the first semester they are offered.
