Student stories

What students say

“The computer labs at Topkapi stay open until late, so I practice hardware assembly after classes. Living on the European side of Istanbul, my commute to campus is just two metro stops.”

Omar Al-RawiComputer Technology · Iraq

“After a year of Turkish prep, I joined the Child Development program at Istanbul Topkapi University. My advisor checked my translated transcripts twice before submission, which saved me from resubmitting anything at the migration office.”
