🇬🇧 English

This regulation updates Article 19 of Erciyes University's main education regulation, specifically changing how raw success scores are calculated. For programs using a course-passing system, the raw success score is now calculated as 40% of the average of midterm exams plus 60% of the final or year-end exam score. Programs using a year-passing system may set their own weighting ratios, determined by the relevant academic units. Fractions are kept as-is during ratio calculations, but final raw success scores are rounded to the nearest whole number. While exams are generally written, departments may request and receive approval for alternative assessment methods such as oral exams, portfolios, projects, presentations, or peer evaluations. Such decisions must be announced to students at the beginning of the semester in the information form.
