What we can confirm

  • Listed in the WHO World Directory of Medical Schools (WDOMS ID F0002586) — you can verify this independently on wdoms.org rather than take any agent's word for it.
  • 103 rated student reviews on file here, averaging 3.8★ — read the full text below before deciding.

Verify before you pay anyone

  • Recognition and licensing rules change over time. Re-check the current NMC-eligible colleges list and this country's regulations for Turkey yourself before paying anything.
  • Never pay an agent or "seat reservation" fee in cash, or before you have a signed offer letter directly from the university.
  • A guaranteed admission, a discounted "management quota" seat, or pressure to decide within 24 hours are classic pressure tactics — slow down and verify independently.
  • Confirm the medium of instruction, hostel/food costs, and total multi-year fee in writing from the university itself, not only from an agent's brochure.

💬 Student Reviews

Real reviews from students.

S A

Finding the exam building is particularly difficult for those taking ALES-style exams. They need to increase signage and take directional guidance more seriously. The entrance to the main building of the Faculty of Architecture/Engineering (the annex building is larger than the main building) is very difficult to find without asking.

Faruk Kose

It's an absolute disgrace. It's not a hospital, it's more like a nursing home. There's no order, no queuing. We got an appointment for surgery, they told us to come at 8 am, and now it's 6 pm and we're still waiting, hungry and thirsty. It's supposedly semi-private, but it's all rubbish. Nobody should come here for nothing...

Fahri Erboy

I came for my daughter's KPSS exam. It's easy to find, there's ample parking, but I don't know about the quality of education. There are social facilities in the campus area, but they're closed because there's no teaching. As you know, the surrounding area and sports facilities have fallen into disrepair due to the pandemic.

recep gülcü

Between 08:45 and 11:25 on June 28, 2021, despite repeatedly calling the 43 60 polyclinic number from the switchboard, I received no answer or the line was busy. If it were closer, I would go and get an answer to my question; it's a 100 km drive. Could the operator please reach out and answer?

karsliizmirli Bozku?

We were here for the YKS 2021 exam, and because there were no students due to the pandemic, we felt like we were in one of those abandoned Wild West towns. The university is very far from the city, and transportation is difficult unless you have a private vehicle.

Ayça Ak?n

Don't even think about coming, my friends. The only good thing about Bal?kesir is its location. There's nothing else to it. If you want to have a good university life, don't choose Bal?kesir. You'll regret it and have to move cities to do activities, like me.

Seval KAYA

I don't know about the campus but the management is terrible, there is a lot of work being done, there are no warning signs, we are late for the exam by 1 minute. All they say is to complain to Cimer. It is impossible to reach the person responsible.

Caner “SALTAR” ?ahin

Imagine, they announce an exam. So many people, families, spouses, and children, are coming from abroad! But the restrooms are closed. These poor people were going to the mosque. Finally, they closed the mosque. You're so unkind to us about …

Zafer Kanbur

We came for the National Defense University exam. It was very crowded. The biggest problem was for the parents of the students. The children took the exam. There was no place for us to wait. The toilets were a major problem. There are only …

Gizem Akcil

May God protect us from this. Contrary to popular belief, there's no sea, only two hours away. The campus is very, very far from the city center, and the student dormitories are miserable. Some of the university's professors are good, but …

Göktu? Yalcin

If you're looking for a university life, stay away. Definitely don't write it down. If you're looking for your preferences, your only activity here will be going to the main 10 malls and the city center. There's nothing else to do. It's a …

Burçin Tatar

I've been trying to get an appointment with the nephrology department for a week now, but I can't even get through to an operator. I'm coming from out of town to see Dr. Ömer, I have kidney disease. I've called more than 50 times in the …

Kadir ERKAN

It's a fairly large campus. The interior is beautifully landscaped. It houses departments such as medicine, veterinary medicine, tourism, economics and administrative sciences, physical education, and sports. It's a bit far from the city …

Vedat Zar

Years ago (2008), Prof. ?erif Saylan said that our university was in its infancy. Now I see that much has passed under the bridge. Landscaping has been completed, but construction is still ongoing. I hope the government will provide the …

Kerem Ertürk

I can't understand why it's so far out of town, and it's only recently completed its settlement. It's a quiet university in a quiet city. It's a city where people from big cities are bored out of their minds. As for its advantages, it's …

Furkan Ozcan

The administration is a disgrace. It's 40 degrees outside and they don't turn on the air conditioners, I think they're just decorations. We go to the mosque, there's no water, and they're forcing hundreds of people to stop praying. I've …

Figen Yardimci

Our university is far from the city, making it difficult to get to. Buses arrive late at the bus stops. Our students are going through a difficult and stressful time. We must urgently expedite municipal services. Educational success is …

Bar?? Kurnazoglu

It's a shame, the money they're taking is ill-gotten, everyone is suffering, it's a place lacking in healthcare. Those who are planning to come, absolutely do not come. Come for a picnic, but don't come for healthcare, you will suffer...

Nadir Kaplan

The campus is quite far from the city, and transportation is provided by single-line buses and supervised private public buses... Parking is insufficient on exam days when students are busy, but it's not a problem in normal times... …

METEHAN NAZ

While it used to be centrally located, it now operates in a larger and more spacious location on Bigadiç Road. Efforts are being made to provide quality education. The teaching staff is also not what it once was, and the number of …

Yonca

Don't come here. It's like a village. Everywhere smells of mud and manure. It's an hour's bus ride from the city. Student tickets are 3.50 TL, full price tickets are 4.50 TL. There are no activities to do. The food is terrible.

Samael Mikael

It's not a nice place at all. It's very small and there's nothing to do. Also, don't even think about coming here because there's a sea; the campus is in the center of Bal?kesir, and there's no sea in the center of Bal?kesir.

Bar?? Kamil Saltik

The campus we went to for the 2021 DGS exam has changed a lot and has become more spacious with its environmental arrangements, and we hope that the quality of education is at the same level as its visuality.

M Akif Uysal

The main campus is at the top of the mountain, and there's not even a market. The faculty of education is relatively okay in the city center. Bal?kesir is generally a huge village for young people.

Baris Celebi

There is no other student affairs office as uncaring and uninterested in students as Bal?kesir University Student Affairs. They do not answer any of my emails and do not respond to any of my calls.

Judith AA

a fantastic place an extraordinary country a wonderful people. Great place for study. Good buildings and structures. I love this country and the people. Visit it! You will love it to

Selami Soysal

It's a terrible campus, there's nowhere for people to sit, nowhere to get a drink of water, a campus so far from the city center is unacceptable, BAUN failed the KPSS exam...

Sevim

The only tree area on campus is around the rectorate building. As we move further along, there's nothing but dry grass, neglected. This is a campus in the development stage.

Mehmet Erdem

A university with inadequate space for its use, but academically sound. It's a campus full of regrets, with plenty of potential and space, but let's hope for the best.

Seyfettin Ayd?n

The vocational school's classroom structure is similar to secondary school classes. The difference between bachelor's and associate degree programs is noticeable.

Anshuman Srivastava

Direction signs are very poor. If you are a foreigner, finding the place you are looking for is a complete torture, especially since the exam time is very busy.

Mehmet Erdal DÖNMEZ

Directional signs are very inadequate. If you're a foreigner, finding the place you're looking for is a real ordeal, especially during the busy exam season.

SAL?H VE ARDA (SAL?H VE ARDA)

Transportation is a major issue. I would never recommend the hospital here. You're left waiting, there's no hygiene, and there are no patient rights.

s4lu nardeb

Being far from the center is a problem for the campus, but it is advantageous for students with its clean environment and being in touch with nature.

Emre Durkaya

Yes, it is good in terms of education, but we cannot do anything in terms of activities, we are at the top of the mountain, far from the center.

erkut iyiol

It's a very good and beautiful campus, but some buildings are neglected. The canteens and other places to meet basic needs are not good.

Neil McDermott

Very large campus out in the countryside. Modern buildings, spacious layout. Engineering, science, literature and medical faculties.

Adnan Ercan

I really like it. It's just a bit far from the center and the surroundings are neglected. I believe it will be wonderful soon.

Nevzat Saat

The distance between the campus and the city (45+45=90 minutes round trip) is really annoying. Do the rest of the math :)))

An?l Benzer

Friends who are going to choose, do not choose. It is a better place than a village, both Bal?kesir and its university.

Bingül KURT

I took my father to the ENT department. I won't tell you, you'll see for yourselves. The silent ones in Bal?kesir...

priti kumari

A very nice University with lots of facilities and nice campus area. Education and teaching has a new level here.

Özdemir Ülperen

We are satisfied. The staff is very active around the building, and I would like to see necessary action taken.

Dogan Kuzucu

I asked him if he offered a basic real estate appraisal course. He said to call the faculty and brushed me off.

Deniz Öztürk

Brother, there can't be such a Halkbank exam, the questions were like pipes, how can there be such questions?

Mustafa ?AH?N

If you are coming here for sea or education purposes, do not come, I advise you to consider other places.

Gökay Topal

The university is in a village 40 km away from the city center. Sheep graze on campus in the summer.

bekir çete

The landscaping is terrible. It's a beautiful area, but unfortunately the landscaping is very poor.

Hayat?m?z Bal?k

It is the most important health center in Bal?kesir, especially for orthopedic service workers.

Teoman Vural

It has a wonderful campus, a place where we can leave our children with complete peace of mind.

Dr S

Average, but students are trying their best to make it a better place but it's still not good

Oktay Gülsaçan (Vesta K9 - iVp Dobermanns)

The campus has ample green spaces, not much of a social scene, but it's a beautiful campus.

Ömer Alt?n

The campus is very far from the city center and there are no residential areas around it.

Murat Cem Söyler

The campus itself is beautiful, but despite having new buildings, it's very neglected.

Mehmet O?uz GÖKALP

It is a very large and growing campus, but landscaping is needed as soon as possible.

Noname

If you say you want to live a university life, don't even come close to it, brother.
