For students who have gained admission to Bilkent University via the national OSYM examination and placement system, tuition fees are quoted in Turkish Liras and announced on a semester basis. Tuition fees for the Fall and Spring semesters are announced in June and December, respectively.
Increases in semester tuition fees for presently enrolled students are always limited to the inflation rate for the relevant period. For students who are enrolled at Bilkent in the Fall semester, the tuition fee for the Spring semester is calculated by considering the June – December inflation rate.
Students who prefer to pay the Spring semester tuition fee at the beginning of the Fall semester are charged the same amount for the Spring semester as the Fall semester.
Presently enrolled students are required to pay their tuition fees by the deadline specified in the academic calendar, prior to course registrations.
Newly admitted students are required to pay the Fall semester tuition fee before their university registration appointment. Tuition fees are not refundable once the university registration is completed. Leave of absence applications for the first academic year are categorically denied.
Semester tuition fees can be paid through the branches of banks that have an agreement with Bilkent University. Please see the Tuition Payment Methods page for details.
