It is essential that students attend all classes so that they can develop the necessary English language skills. In the English Preparatory Program, students are required to attend at least 90% of the courses. Students who attend classes less than 90% for any documented or undocumented reason, including illness, disciplinary action, or other mandatory reasons, are deemed to have failed to meet their in-class obligations. Even if students in this situation are successful in their courses, they cannot continue to the next level. Students participating in the optional English Preparatory Program can start their studies in the next academic year. In case of severe illness, in case of presentation of a committee report or hospitalization certificate, students are considered on leave.

Students who have successfully completed 5 English courses and have not stayed in any of the courses are offered the opportunity to go abroad.
