After one semester I will finish my studies on International Business Administration. In
general I am satisfied with the Istanbul University. I like the relationship between students and the professors. They are very friendly to each other and the professors always
trying to help to the students. What I did not like and what is different in my university is
that some professors are really easy-going concerning the start and the end of lessons.
Before coming to Istanbul, I thought that the university is less organized. But I have to
say that I could always solve my problems easily. Also the atmosphere at the university is
really relaxed and comfortable. As I have a Turkish origin, I knew the cultural differences.
But despite that I experienced some surprising situations. All in all I can say that I am
very happy to be here and would recommend others to study at Istanbul University.
Slovakia
School of Business is good choice for Erasmus students. On my own, education at this
school is at high level. And what is the best? The best is friendly atmosphere for foreign
students. It is very easy to find new friends here, not only students, but professors also.
Faculty offers you a lot of things for your free time. Also you can find a lot of good foods
in cafeteria and canteen, and I have to mention a lunch for 1 Turkish Lira. Furthermore, there are also people from ESN Existanbul who take care for Erasmus students.
They do really good work with it. They organized many trips, meetings and other events.
So, I am sure you won’t be bored till your exchange.
The Erasmus experience in Istanbul and more particularly in Business School is really interesting
for several reasons: First, Istanbul is a very specific city, between Europe and Asia; I learn a lot
about the Turkish culture. There is a lot of things to visit, to see and to do. Istanbul is very dynamic, young and cosmopolitic. So I really like the atmosphere of this city. And also people are nice
here. Second, there is lot of Erasmus student here, in Istanbul University. I can discover, of
course, Turkish people, but also rather European people. And learn about language, other cultures…it is very interesting. Third, the Erasmus program is well organized; coordinator and some
professors take care of Erasmus students and help us. There is also ESN association who organize some trip to discover the country.

My name is Maxime Nadine Gottschalk and I am studying Business Administration at Istanbul University. I am totally convinced that this was the right choice. The atmosphere at the
faculty is just amazing and the professor and students are really open minded. Furthermore,
there this ENS Existanbul network who do a lot for us and helped us a lot especially during
the first days. The level of education is also very good and similar to the German level. I will
recommend doing such an Exchange term at Istanbul University to my fellow students at my
home university and I really hope that there will be more exchanges between Istanbul
University and HNE Eberswalde. I would always do it again. My only recommendation concerning Erasmus students might be to assist the foreign students with getting their residence permit.
I spend great moment here in Istanbul University. Sightseeing, parties, Turkish culture…and of course
classes here in the School of Business in Avcılar. It is easy to get lost in Istanbul because the city is so
huge, even for me who is from Paris. But you always find friendly people to help you. Going to Istanbul is
also a good occasion to travel all over the country. There are organized trips with ESN but you can also
take your backpack and go on your own. Travelling is cheap. However, be careful with your money;
especially for girls because there are so many shops. Now I have 3 months to leave and believe me,
time goes quickly in Istanbul. So a final advice for those who will come to the University of Istanbul is to
enjoy the maximum of Istanbul.

My name is Livia. I
am from Moldova.
In my hometown I
studied
“MoldoTurkish”. So I was one of the few students that got the opportunity to come
and continue my studies here in Türkiye.
So I came to Istanbul in 2007. I am really
glad that I have had this opportunity. I am
very pleased and profound about all this
new stuff. First of all it is about the
culture that holds all the secrets for
thousands of year and I had the chance
to live and pass through it, and even try
to be part of it. I was and I am still trying
to enlighten me every day by visiting new
places, making new connections and
asking more questions, so I can use my
time wisely. Liviu Alimov - Moldova
I come to
Türkiye in 2007 from Ginea. I learned
Turkish in
Ankara then I came to Istanbul. I became
a student in this faculty from 2008 until today. I like Istanbul very much, it is a very
big city and there are many things to do in here. I like my school and my friends. I
am really happy to being here. Also I like my teachers because they tried to help me
every time when I need, and school administration is really helpful for me.
Saico Umoro Embalo - Ginea
I came from Maldives, a country which has an educational system with English as the medium of instruction. As a result of this
connection with the English language, it was natural for me to expect Istanbul University and the city to be an environment familiar with this language.
As a metropolitan city, Istanbul is full of life with the monetary and travel
privileges. As a scholarship student, you can experience this touristic and
cultural city. Turkey has many similarities with the culture of my country. This
helps in understanding, communicating and socializing with classmates and
others around. In short, an academic experience in Istanbul University in
Istanbul will be a life long unforgettable experience. If you have the opportunity for an academic life at Istanbul University, go for it with open arms!
Sinan Abdul Gayyom - Maldiv
I’m from China. Istanbul has a culture that same as Pekin. It absorbs
the cultures which are belong to Asia
and Europe. Istanbul University is a
huge university. The students are
very glad helping to foreign students.
I have been here since four years. I
like my school and Istanbul is like my
second hometown for me.
Deju Ma - China
Istanbul
is a very
beautiful city, one of the
most wonderful places on the
world. I have had many experiences in six years. Istanbul
University is like a symbol of
the city. It has as rich history
as the city. The thing that I
like most is professional
attitude of lecturers. At the
campus, there is a beautiful
restaurant for the students
and the food is cheap but
good. There is a nice sport
complex with fitness salon
and football, basketball,
volleyball courts. I don’t regret choosing this business
school at all!
