UNDERGRADUATE DOUBLE DIPLOMA PROGRAM BETWEEN YEDITEPE UNIVERSITY INTERNATIONAL FINANCE AND KING'S UNIVERSITY COLLEGE AT THE WESTERN ONTARIO UNIVERSITY
- The double diploma undergraduate program (a.k.a. DDUP dual degree) between Yeditepe University International Finance Program and King's University College at the Western Ontario University (KING) Economics and Finance Program is in English, and the education period is 4 years, excluding the English preparatory school.
- Students study at Yeditepe University for the first two years and at KING for the last two years. Students graduating at the end of 4 years receive two independent diplomas: one is a Bachelor of International Finance (BA) diploma from Yeditepe University and the other is a Bachelor of Economics and Finance (BA) from KING.
- Admission and placement of Turkish students to the double diploma program is done according to the results of ÖSYS (Student Selection and Placement Exam) placement made by ÖSYM (Student Selection and Placement Center). Foreign students will be accepted in accordance with the international student admission criteria (www.international.yeditepe.edu.tr). Turkish students who have completed their entire secondary education (high school) in high schools abroad can apply to the program by taking advantage of the KING quota.
- In order for students to study at KING during the 3rd and 4th years of the program, they must have successfully completed the first two years of courses and academic requirements at Yeditepe and have foreign language proficiency (TOEFL). Students must comply with all application deadlines set by KING. Students who do not comply with the determined rules and dates and do not pay their educational financial obligations cannot register or renew their registration. Obtaining a Canadian student visa, complying with Canada's immigration laws, accommodation, living, education, insurance, food and beverage, transportation, books and all other expenses in Canada are students' responsibility and are entirely covered by students.
- Since the program is not-funded, students will pay tuition and fees of Yeditepe during the first 2 years while they study at Yeditepe, and they will pay tuition and fees of KING during the last 2 years of their program when they study at KING.
