2. Nomination by sending institution

The students who would like to study at Anadolu University as exchange student should be nominated by their home institution.

To start the application procedure, we need a nomination e-mail sent by the home institutions to uib@anadolu.edu.tr with the following data:

- Name and Erasmus Code of sending institution

- Full name and e-mail address of student(s)

- Field(s) of studies (faculty and department of student)

We would like to highlight that Learning Agreements should also be sent in the same e-mail with the nomination information. Please check Anadolu Infopack for the courses.

3. Application at Anadolu University

After the nomination e-mail have been sent by the home institution, please start the following steps to make your application at Anadolu University:

- Online Application Form: After nomination you will receive an e-mail with a link and password to our Online Application System. Please fill in the Online Application Form for Erasmus Students or Non-Erasmus Students (choose the appropriate one) on computer, have it signed and stamped to your institution and send a soft copy via e-mail. This online application form also includes the Housing Application Form. We regret to tell you that it is not possible to arrange any accommodation unless we received the application form including the housing application form beforehand.

- Learning Agreement: Please prepare your Learning Agreement with the help of Anadolu University Erasmus Departmental Coordinators and send us scanned copy via e-mail. You can get information about courses and their contents. Please keep in mind that you may take any course from any faculty as long as your university agrees.

- Transcripts of Records: It should be your latest transcript that you received from your university.

As soon as the documents have been completed, Office for International Affairs will prepare and send the Acceptance Letter for the exchange student.

4. Visa

Students who need to get visa must apply to a Turkish Consulate, generally the one nearest your place of residence. We recommend to apply for a visa as soon as you get your acceptance letter.

You have to apply with your "Letter of Acceptance" given by Anadolu University and other required documents to the Turkish Consulate in your country.

Please note that it may takes up to 8 weeks to get the visa. You may find Consulate information through the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs website: http://www.mfa.gov.tr.

5. Insurance

A comprehensive health insurance has to cover both outpatient and inpatient treatment, full medication for the duration of stay. Health insurance must cover the whole study period (as written in acceptance letter) and must be in English (if possible Turkish). Upon the request of the Immigration Office your health insurance must be confirmed by our office.

6. Accommodation

Our Accommodation system for exchange students works as follows: every semester Anadolu University students offer their flats to share with incoming students. According to the preferences stated in Housing Application Form we will match the exchange student with a local student. The matching will be announced approx. 3 weeks before the student’s arrival.

Immediately after matching the student will receive the contact data of the flatmate and they can get in touch. The flatmate should send the student pictures of the flat and will also inform the student about rent and other costs. If there are any problems with the flat or the flatmate we will do our best to find you a new place.

Also, the buddy student will be announced during this time. All exchange students are assigned to a buddy student. Buddy students help exchange students with travel arrangements and inform them about the university, city and the country during the whole stay. As long as the student inform the buddy student about the exact arrival date and time then the buddy student can pick the exchange student up from the train station or bus station to Eskişehir.

One other option are private Apartments: With the help of your buddy student or ESN Anadolu (official Erasmus Club of Anadolu University) you can check on internet various furnished apartment offers. We highly recommend you to see the place in person before making any payments.
