This is the worst university anyone could be in , please be careful not to apply for it, they will take alot of money and offer a very low quality education with incompetent instructors. And they will raise the fees every year, they are out of teachers so they are bringing random people to teach with no phd or whatsoever, careful people!
This is definitely a school to avoid. They make students attend summer school in their final year just to get money from them. It's absolutely terrible. Students with 3-4 failed courses don't have to attend summer school, but those with 2 failed courses, even with high GPA, are forced to attend. There's no logical explanation for it.

I would like to say a big thank you to all the staff who works on the oncology department, leaded by my Almighty Saviour, Her Majesty, Prof.dr.Turkan, and her very good staff team: Emre Kilic, Nilufer, Nermin, Fatma, Cigdem, Esra, Irem, Ilknur and all the employees in the Biruni hospital. Everyone and everything is important here.

It's no different from a state hospital; I'm not exaggerating, you wait half an hour at the registration desk. Then, getting examined and tested is pure torture. There's only one dedicated staff member in the whole hospital. You wait in line for half an hour just to get a blood test, and only then can you get your business done.

The doctor we went to for my wife examined us for only two minutes, then directed us to tests without understanding or listening to us. Patient rights couldn't resolve the issue either; they're giving us an appointment for a different day. It's a waste of money; we would have been better off going to a local health center.
Never come to this school, it is a disgrace, my 2 years were wasted, the grades were inflated for 3 semesters, the semester we were going to graduate was reduced and they dropped us from the exams just to get money. The only thing they do during the semester you study is to get money, there is no proper education system.
It's a complete money trap. The professor failed the course due to his own incompetence, then apologized, but we're the ones who have to retake the course and pay for it. We're constantly being victimized, subjected to exorbitant price increases, and expected to pay. And the student affairs office is extremely unhelpful.
This is the worst university anyone could apply to. I'm a new student and haven't been able to complete my application process for ten days. No one is helping me; everyone is referring me to someone else. I don't know what to do, and my semester is going to be a waste. I wouldn't recommend this university to anyone.
I was hospitalized as a donor in the organ transplant ward. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the nurses in charge of the ward and our secretary for their care and attention. May God bless them. We were only not very satisfied with the food. Thank you again to the organ transplant ward and its staff.
If it were in an easily accessible location, it would have gotten five stars. Also, there's a lot of crowding at the entrance, and the queue stretches quite far. It's a completely different concept inside. Since it's the first year, it's too early to comment on the quality of education, towards the end of October.
