With the removal of the threshold, the placements were announced after the university exam, which had the highest participation in history. After the preference data, the universities in all of Turkey achieved the highest occupancy rate in their history. While a total of 12,587 quotas remain vacant at universities, 1,906,021 candidates who cannot be placed in a department have the right to additional placement.
Despite the discussions that the university buildings are empty due to the universities opened all over Turkey, the university exam, which was held without a threshold, gave results. For the first time in history, the quotas of universities reached 99 percent occupancy. The filling of the quotas sentenced 1,906,021 candidates to additional quotas.
THRESHOLD REMOVED, QUOTA VICTIMS APPEARED
Against the empty building discussions that frequently come to the agenda regarding the universities opened all over Turkey, Student Selection and Placement Center (ÖSYM) abolished the thresholds in the university exam. Although the removal of the threshold filled the quotas, it caused a new victimization. While this victimization covers 1,906,021 candidates, these candidates are waiting in line to study at any university with additional placement preferences due to 99 percent of the quotas.
MORE THAN 1 MILLION CANDIDATES ARE LOOKING FOR ADDITIONAL PLACEMENT
The results of the Higher Education Institution Exam (YKS), which had the highest participation in history, were announced in the past weeks. While it is stated in the announced data that 99 percent of the university quotas are filled, 1,906,021 candidates who are entitled to additional placement despite the remaining vacant quotas are waiting to choose the vacant quota. While the candidates who could not get a place in the first placement wait for the additional placements to be opened for the remaining 12,587 vacant quotas, it is a matter of curiosity how many candidates will be the victims of the placement after the additional placement period, which will start after the university registrations will end on August 26.
EMPTY QUOTATIONS ARE EXPECTED TO BE OCCURED WITH UNREGISTERED STUDENTS IN OPEN EDUCATION
While as a result of the university exam, the faculties within the Faculty of Open Education (AÖF) have experienced a 100 percent occupancy rate for the first time in history, students who want to study in one of the open education faculties are waiting for the vacant quotas that will be created by the students who are placed but not registered.
