Istanbul Technical University (ITU) is a public technical university in Istanbul, founded in 1773, when the Ottoman Empire was ruled by Sultan Mustafa III. It is one of the world's oldest technical universities, historically dedicated to engineering and natural sciences, with social sciences added in recent years.

The university offers 39 bachelor's programmes and 144 master's programmes, and operates 13 colleges (faculties), 346 laboratories and 12 research centres. Its academic strength lies in engineering and natural sciences, which makes ITU one of Turkey's leading technical universities.

For international applicants, ITU is a state university in Istanbul with a strong engineering profile. You should primarily consider programmes in engineering and natural sciences, and check the university's official website for admission requirements, language options and application procedures.

Need the language to apply?

Almost everywhere the language is checked before admission, not after. We prepare for the exams admissions offices actually ask for.

Common questions about admission

Why apply through UNIPROFI specifically?

UNIPROFI is about a well-thought-out application and a strong outcome: we build an application path around your profile, goals and the requirements of your selected universities. You work with mentors who are current students or graduates of these schools, so you get real understanding of the system, campuses and opportunities — not theory. We take on complex cases (including minors and admission without an 11th-grade diploma), build an individual strategy for your profile and goals, and support you through every stage, from documents to your visa.

Do you guarantee admission?

We don't offer "guarantees for the sake of a sale," because no one can directly influence a university's decision. What we do is structure everything to minimize the risk of rejection: matching you to the right universities, building a strong application strategy and preparing documents carefully. If you complete the whole process under your plan and are not admitted to any of the universities we applied to, the service agreement lets you choose: a refund minus costs already incurred (university fees, translations, courier) or a free re-application for the next intake.

What are my actual chances of getting in?

We do not state a universal admission probability because the decision belongs to the university. We instead assess your profile, programme requirements and application strategy.

Can I apply on my own — why do I need you?

You can, but most students end up losing time, making mistakes, or settling for weaker universities. We save you months, help you start at a stronger level, and prevent the mistakes that can cost you admission.
