Exam Regulations & Assessment & Grading

Assessment and evaluation processes at Atlas University Vocational School are conducted according to the provisions of the Istanbul Atlas University Associate and Undergraduate Education, Teaching and Examination Regulations.
The assessment method for each course is announced by the instructor at the beginning of the semester and is included in the course information package. In-semester assessments may include midterm exams, quizzes, assignments, projects, practical/laboratory work, and other activities appropriate to the nature of the course. The passing grade is calculated as 60% in-semester and 40% in-semester.
At least three assessment activities are applied in each course, including the final exam. Students who score below 40 points on the final or make-up exam are considered unsuccessful; the make-up exam replaces the final exam.
Exam dates are announced by the department/program. To participate in exams, it is necessary to be registered for the course, meet the attendance requirement, and fulfill the relevant obligations. The attendance requirement is 70% for theoretical courses and 80% for practical courses. Students who are absent cannot take the final and make-up exams. Raw grades between 0 and 100 are given for each course and converted to letter grades according to the letter grade conversion table in the Regulations. D and D+ grades are conditional passes; if the student`s GPA is below 2.00, these courses are considered failed. Students who cheat, plagiarize, or disrupt the examination process will be subject to the disciplinary provisions of Article 54 of Law No. 2547 and the Regulations.
