This regulation establishes the rules for the compulsory Arabic preparatory year at Kütahya Dumlupınar University's Faculty of Theology. All newly registered students must take the Arabic Proficiency Exam (AYS). A score of at least 65 out of 100 is required to be exempt from the preparatory class. Students who fail or do not take the exam must attend a two-semester preparatory program with a minimum of 24 hours of Arabic per week. The program aims to teach basic Arabic grammar, writing, speaking, listening, and the ability to read original Islamic sources. Attendance of at least 80% is mandatory; those falling below this threshold receive a DZ (absent) grade and cannot take the final exam. Students have two years maximum to successfully complete the preparatory year (minimum passing score 60/100). Failure to pass within two years results in dismissal from the program under Article 44 of the Higher Education Law.
