Important Notes for Undergraduate and Associate Degree Students
1. Course registration for 1st-year students will be completed automatically. They do not need to take any action regarding course registration. They are only required to log in to the Student Information System (OBS) to check that their courses have been assigned.

5. Students cannot take courses that have not been approved by their academic advisors.
6. With advisor approval, students may retake courses they have previously passed to improve their grade. In such cases, the most recent grade will be valid, regardless of the previous grade. 7. Students will complete course registration via the Student Information System (OBS) and submit it electronically for advisor approval. Once approved by the advisor through the system, the course registration process will be finalized.
8. Students whose course registrations are not approved by their advisors will not be allowed to attend classes.
9. Student status will become active on e-Government (e-Devlet) only after advisor approval of course registration.

11. 1st-year students are not allowed to take courses from upper semesters.
12. Double Major and Minor students may complete their major course registration first and then select their double major or minor program courses through the Student Information System (OBS).
13. Students who have successfully completed all courses from previous semesters and have a GPA of 3.00 or above may, starting from the third semester, take one course from an upper year with advisor approval. Students with a GPA of 3.50 or above may take up to two courses from an upper year.
14. Students who have completed their 2nd year in associate degree programs or their 4th year in bachelor's degree programs and have courses remaining from previous semesters will select their courses through the Semester ECTS Application and Approval System and complete their payment transactions. After completing the payment transaction, students will register for their courses themselves through the OBS system.
15. Undergraduate students whose GPA falls below 1.80 will be placed on probationary status. At the end of the 4th semester, students who are still on probation can only take a limited number of courses until they return to good standing:
· With a GPA of 1.60–1.69, a maximum of 2 courses.
· With a GPA of 1.70–1.79, a maximum of 3 courses.
16. Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences 4th Students will complete their course registration process without adding the OHS404 Occupational Health and Safety course to their curriculum, which includes the OHS401 Occupational Health and Safety I and OHS402 Occupational Health and Safety II courses, and submit it for advisor approval. The OHS404 Occupational Health and Safety course will be added to the course registration by the advisor. For students who have previously successfully completed either OHS401 or OHS402, the OHS404 course will be added by the advisor as 2 ECTS credits; for those who have previously taken and failed the course or are taking it for the first time, the OHS404 course will be added as 4 ECTS credits. In this context, it is important that our students complete their course registrations leaving the necessary ECTS space for the OHS404 course. The same rule applies to the courses with codes ISG401 and ISG402 in the Molecular Biology and Genetics (Turkish) program. The registration for these courses will be done in a similar manner with the advisor's approval.
