Exchange Program Placement Results for Outgoing Students – 2026–2027

Announcement Date: 
6 January 2026

Dear Boğaziçi Students,

Thank you for your interest in the Student Exchange Program. We received a total of 320 applications. Out of 320 students, 182 were placed.

You may view the results of the first Exchange placement for 2026-2027 outgoing students here.

Students who decide to participate in the Exchange program MUST approve the online commitment form and submit it via BUIS / ÖBİKAS between the dates of January 08, 2026, 10:00 AM to January 13, 2026, 04:00 PM (16:00).

We do NOT request/accept hardcopy commitment forms.

Students who do not submit their online commitment forms will be considered as “not placed”, thereby remaining out of our Exchange outgoing list.

Students who do not submit their online commitment forms until the due date will lose their placements, and the seats allocated to them will be made available for applications in the second Exchange (only for Spring 2027) placement in April.

Once you submit your online commitment form, your nomination process will start. The timing of this process varies depending on your placement.

Due to unforeseeable circumstances, quota and term information may change during the application period and can lead to loss of placement.

Placed students will spend a semester at the Exchange destination during the 2026-2027 academic year. 

IMPORTANT NOTES

  • Due to unforeseeable circumstances caused by the updates that host institutions make, mobility numbers and semester preferences may change during the application and placement sessions. Please be reminded that this may cause the loss of placement.
  • Please check the Host Institutions’ application requirements beforehand as they have the right to update their requirements.
  • In case you change your department at Bogazici Univesity and its timing coincides exactly with the application process, it will cause the cancellation of your placement.
  • If you previously participated in an Exchange Program, you can apply again; however, 10 points will be deducted.
  • You can participate in the Exchange Program maximum of 2 semesters in total, either in the same academic year or the following years at the same academic status.

  • After you sign the letter of commitment, if you revoke your application, 10 points will be deducted for your next Exchange Programs application either in the same academic year or the following years.
  • No grant will be given for Exchange Programs.
  • Students who plan to go to Switzerland should get information about the grants provided by the government of the institution they are planning to go to.
  • In April 2026, it is planned that there will be another Exchange application only for Spring 2027.
