| Number of Turkish Students According to Study Destinations
Turkish educational market has been expanded a lot during the last two years and has been still growing. We thank to especially economic improvements as inflation got down to %9 from % 35 ; interest rates reduced to %15 ( actually it is still high for the economy) ; pozitive improvements and comments to join to the EU in the future ; receiving more and more foreign investments every year
30% of Turkey's population is the teenage, two times higher than EU average.
Did you know that each year over 1,5 million Turkish students take the National University Placement Exam, but only 30% of them are placed in a university in Turkey? This means that an abundance of students will be looking to foreign institutions for admission.
In 2008, 1,728,077 students took the National University Placement Exam and only 380,607 of them were placed in a university.
According to the Ministry of Education Statistics, more than 25,000 Turkish students preferred to study abroad in 2007. With the summer school and short-term tourist visas total student number is over 40,000 per year.
After the political stability and economical improvements in Turkey, the number of students seeking study abroad increased drastically.
Based on our past experience, we believe that Turkish students are playing an important role in enhancing student diversity on school campuses all over the world.
Turkey is a member of NATO and the only Muslim country with a secular, democratic government. It is a modern environment in which schools can feel safe and access regional markets conveniently
