Questions

Can I study in Turkey with the Tawjihi?

Yes. 25 of our partner universities there accept the Tawjihi for direct entry to a bachelor's, 0 ask for a foundation year first.

What Tawjihi average do I need for Turkey?

Published minimums range from 50% (Atilim University) to 80% (Uskudar University), and vary by course.

Does meeting the minimum guarantee me a place?

No. The published minimum is the lowest average a university will consider, and each course sets its own grades, subjects and English level. We check the requirements for your course before you apply.

Where this data comes from

Every Tawjihi minimum comes from the official admissions page of a GESCO partner university, linked next to each entry. This is guidance, not an offer: each course sets its own grades, subjects and English level. Fees are converted to JOD approximately, at rates of 26 October 2026.
