GENERAL PRINCIPLES 1) For candidates that do not take the written exam and/or attend the interview or for those whose written exam grade and/or interview score for Master’s Degree is under 50, and for PhD programs under 60, the placement grade is not calculated and these candidates are considered unsuccessful. Candidates whose placement grade for thesis and non-thesis Master’s Degree programmes is 60 and higher, and for PhD programmes 65 and higher, are aligned according to their scores starting from the highest. 2) In case there are both written exam and interview, first the written exam takes place and then the interview. Candidates that do not take the written exam will not be accepted for the interview.
