Scholarship Matrix with No Additional Application Required
BAU has established a comprehensive and automated financial aid system for international students. Once admitted, applicants are automatically entered into the scholarship pool, and award decisions are issued simultaneously with the admission notification. Taking the Cyprus campus as an example, most undergraduate programs offer tuition waivers ranging from 50% to 75%; The main campus in Turkey has no complex paperwork system, and winners of academic competitions or students meeting international academic standards may also qualify for special awards. Financial support is even more substantial at the master’s and doctoral levels: doctoral students receive nearly full scholarships, and master’s students receive stipends supplemented by research stipends for up to three years, significantly reducing the cost of studying abroad.
