As soon as the documents have been completed, Office for International Affairs will prepare and send the Acceptance Letter for the exchange student.

3. Visa

Students who need to get visa must apply to a Turkish Consulate, generally the one nearest your place of residence. We recommend to apply for a visa as soon as you get your acceptance letter.

You have to apply with your "Letter of Acceptance" given by Malatya Turgut Özal University and other required documents to the Turkish Consulate in your country.

Please note that it may takes up to 8 weeks to get the visa. You may find Consulate information through the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs website: http://www.mfa.gov.tr.

4. Insurance

A comprehensive health insurance has to cover both outpatient and inpatient treatment, full medication for the duration of stay. Health insurance must cover the whole study period (as written in acceptance letter) and must be in English (if possible Turkish). Upon the request of the Immigration Office your health insurance must be confirmed by our office.

5. Accommodation

Our Accommodation system for exchange students works as follows: every semester Malatya Turgut Özal University students offer their flats to share with incoming students. According to the preferences stated in Housing Application Form we will match the exchange student with a local student. The matching will be announced approx. 3 weeks before the student’s arrival.

Immediately after matching the student will receive the contact data of the flatmate and they can get in touch. The flatmate should send the student pictures of the flat and will also inform the student about rent and other costs. If there are any problems with the flat or the flatmate we will do our best to find you a new place.

Also, the buddy student will be announced during this time. All exchange students are assigned to a buddy student. Buddy students help exchange students with travel arrangements and inform them about the university, city and the country during the whole stay. As long as the student inform the buddy student about the exact arrival date and time then the buddy student can pick the exchange student up from the train station or bus station to Malatya.
