Ankara Medipol University — Admissions, Programs and Tuition

Ankara Medipol University is a private university in Ankara. The quickest way to understand what kind of institution it is, is to count the entries in its catalogue: of the 59 programs on the official list on this page, dentistry accounts for six, medicine for two, pharmacy for two and nursing for two — while engineering accounts for two. This is a health-oriented university, not a general one that happens to also offer medicine.

Its published levels are associate and bachelor's. That is worth stating plainly, because unlike some Turkish private universities whose lists run through to PhD, the route beyond a bachelor's degree does not continue inside this list.

Across those 59 programs, 22 are taught in English and 37 in Turkish. Annual tuition runs from $2,250 to $20,000: the bottom of that range is where the associate entries sit, the top is where the health-science entries do.

If your target field is in health, the density of this catalogue works in your favour. Six dentistry entries means more than one combination of language and requirements, and medicine, pharmacy and nursing sit beside them — so changing your target partway through an application, which happens more often than students expect, does not mean leaving the university.

Set against that, the most honest thing we can say is this: if you want to study engineering, a list with two engineering entries is not the right fit, and there are better options for you in Ankara within our directory. The pricing page makes that comparison in a single table.

The figure above is the university's own tuition — not our fee. Everything involved in getting you admitted here, from checking your documents to holding your acceptance letter, is done at no cost to you.

Bachelor's admission is assessed on your high-school record, and Iran's national entrance exam plays no part in it. The 22 English-taught programs require a language certificate or a pass in the university's own language exam; for the 37 Turkish-taught programs, a Turkish preparatory year is the usual route.

Because the list stops at bachelor's level, requirements are relatively uniform across it — in practice the conversation is about your school average and your language. The exception is the health-science entries, which are stricter, and those we confirm with the university each year.

A standard file holds high-school transcripts and diploma with official translations, a copy of a valid passport, a passport photo and, for English-taught programs, a language certificate. For the health-science entries, depending on the year, additional documents may be requested; we tell you before the file is submitted.

Preparing and checking documents is part of the same free service. Most of the delays we see come from an incomplete translation or an illegible stamp, not from the applicant's academic record.

Medicine appears twice in this university's program list, and its tuition sits in the upper part of the $2,250–$20,000 range. Two entries usually means more than one route — differing in language of instruction, for example — and on the application form they are not interchangeable.

We are not writing more detail than that because we do not hold it: the structure of the degree, where clinical training takes place and the grade thresholds are things we ask the university directly and pass on to you in consultation.

Dentistry is the largest part of this university's health catalogue with six entries — three times as many as medicine. For an Iranian applicant that number raises the odds of finding an entry that matches your language and your documents.

Each entry carries its own tuition figure in the table on this page. Before choosing, it is worth putting all six side by side: they can differ in language of instruction as well as in price.

Ankara is Turkey's capital and second-largest city, a planned, orderly place that feels calmer than Istanbul yet carries one of the country's biggest student scenes; around Kızılay in particular, bookshops, study cafes, and budget eateries run on a student rhythm. Getting around is easy, with metro and light-rail lines, frequent buses, and shared minibuses covering most neighborhoods on a single travel card. Living costs sit clearly below Istanbul's, and reasonable student housing is easier to find. The climate is continental — hot, dry summers and cold winters that usually bring some snow. As the seat of government, ministries, and embassies, the city has a steady working feel, and intercity buses make weekend trips across Anatolia simple.
