Üsküdar University Additional Placement Guide
Following the announcement of the Higher Education Institutions Examination (YKS) results and the completion of the initial university placement process, the additional placement period offers an important opportunity for candidates who wish to take another step toward achieving their university dreams. At Üsküdar University, we have compiled all the essential information about the 2026 additional placement quotas and application process in this guide to help candidates navigate this exciting period. By making the most of this second chance, you too can become a member of the Üsküdar University community.
What Is Additional Placement?
Additional placement refers to the vacant places remaining in university programs after the initial centralized placement process, including places that remain unfilled because some candidates do not complete their registration. Administered by the Assessment, Selection and Placement Center (ÖSYM), this process gives candidates another opportunity to submit their preferences.
Additional placement is an important opportunity for candidates who have not been placed in any higher education program during the initial placement process. Through this process, candidates can review programs for which they meet the score requirements and that have available quotas, giving them another chance to secure a place at a university.
Who Is Eligible to Apply for Additional Placement?
According to the rules established by ÖSYM, the following candidates are eligible to participate in the additional placement process:
- Candidates who took the 2026-YKS and were not placed in any higher education program through centralized placement.
- Candidates who did not submit any preferences during the YKS preference period.
- Candidates who were placed in a program through a special talent examination.
However, candidates who were placed in any undergraduate or associate degree program, including Open Education programs, during the initial placement process are not eligible for additional placement, even if they did not complete their registration.
Üsküdar University: Available Additional Placement Quotas
The programs at Üsküdar University that will accept students during the 2026 additional placement period, along with their respective quotas, will be announced by ÖSYM after the initial YKS placement and registration processes have been completed.
Candidates should follow the 2026-YKS Higher Education Programs Additional Placement Guide, which will include the list of vacant quotas, on ÖSYM’s official website at osym.gov.tr.
Once the guide is published, candidates will be able to review the available quotas, minimum placement scores, and special admission requirements for the university’s associate degree and undergraduate programs in detail. We also recommend following announcements on the university’s official website and social media accounts to stay informed and access the latest official information.
2026 Additional Placement Preference Dates
The additional placement preference dates will be announced by ÖSYM after the university registration process has been completed. Based on previous years’ schedules, initial university registrations in 2026 are expected to be completed in early September, with the additional placement preference period also expected to take place in September.
To avoid missing the deadline, candidates should regularly check ÖSYM’s official announcements and updated schedule on its website, as well as Üsküdar University’s social media accounts. Since the preference period is generally short, it is particularly important to monitor the announced dates carefully.
The additional placement application process is conducted online through ÖSYM’s Candidate Transactions System (AİS). Candidates can log in to the system using their Turkish Republic ID numbers and passwords and submit up to 24 preferences from among the vacant places listed in the published Additional Placement Guide.
When making their preferences, candidates are advised to consider both the minimum placement score for the relevant program and their own YKS score, as this may increase their chances of being placed. Additional placement results will also be announced by ÖSYM. Candidates who are eligible for placement in a program at Üsküdar University must complete their registration within the dates specified by ÖSYM, in accordance with the university’s registration procedures, either online or in person.
