Dear International Students,

As you know, ISTEP (English Proficiency Exam) for newly-registered international students will be held tomorrow (Friday, September 15, 2023) in the computer labs at the Vadi Campus. You can find attached below the eligibility list with your student IDs, exam time, and computer labs where you are going to take the exam.

Students should be in their classrooms and ready to take the exams at least 15 minutes before the exam. Please do not forget to bring exam materials such as a pencil, eraser, etc. You must present an identity card (Student Card, National Identity Card, Passport, Driver's License, etc.) at the beginning of the exam.

On the exam date, you will first take an online Cambridge Placement Test (CEPT Reading and Listening) at school. Then, you will take a writing exam to prove your Academic Writing skills. In the Writing Exam, you will be asked to write an academic essay composed of at least four paragraphs, including an introduction, two body paragraphs, and a conclusion. Your essays will be graded based on content, organization, coherence, vocabulary range and accuracy, grammatical range and accuracy, and punctuation. Please make sure to take both exams (CEPT and Writing) on the exam day. If you do not take the writing exam, your writing score will be calculated as 0.

The results will be announced on this website (https://yabancidiller.istinye.edu.tr/en/).
