Hi Sahar, thanks so much for sharing your honest experience as an international student there. I'm thinking about going to grad school abroad at either China, Russia, or Turkey just to experience a truly different culture and ideology, so this realistic perspective is really going to help me with my decisions. What that one teacher did to you is extremely confounding by the way, specially to guilt trip you like that after the fact. I can't wait for you to go gloves off in your video after you graduate. Also, were there just not many other international students or like an international students club where you can find each other? And, if you don't mind me asking, what are you planning on doing with a cognitive science degree, especially in Turkey, if not more academia? One more thing, whenever I google Bogazici, one thing that doesn't fail to show up is some controversy regarding the rector and protests or something. Was this something you experienced the effects of personally at all? Did it have any impact on the outlook of international American/English speaking students there?
I have a lot to unpack about my experience and encounters with different professors, especially my advisor. During my time there, I only met one other international student from the states. There are other foreigners but they are usually erasmus or temporary exchange students while I am a full time master student so they come and go. Idk what i will do with my degree. I wanted to pursue PhD but after my experience, I realized that most people in academia is just arrogant and toxic. Yes, I also experiences the change of rector, it happened in my first year. I was not very actively involve with the protests and tended to stay away because they were very dangerous. There are foreign teachers who left after the rector drama, I am not sure about the impact to foreign students.
hello sehar would you like make a video for us that how we can apply bachelor in cs in this uni it will be highly appreciated bcz most of the student dont know how to apply..plz thanx
What is department interview at bogazici university like ? How long does it take to know if you have been admitted into a program from the day you attend the department interview ? Does the University help with student visa application or a student have to apply for the student visa from their country ?
From my experience, the department interview from my program at least was stressful. It consists of two parts, the exam and the oral interview/exam. If you pass the first exam, you will be invited for the interview in which members of the department will ask you questions about you and your research goals. For the results, I took my exams in april or may and I found out I got accepted in July. Yes, the uni does help with the student visa application but most of it you will have to do on your own. They will provide you the necessary info and steps for the visa application.
thank you this is really informative ... I hope u graduate ASAP 💛
Thank you 🥹 I hope I can graduate ASAP too
