Where You Should Study? United States, United Kingdom or Turkey?

Recently we got a question from one the student who says she would like to study in Turkey but she does not know what she needs to do and how she needs to do it. She says studying in Turkey is her dream and to realize her dream she has to do something but she is clueless and she does not have any idea what she needs to do. So we tried to help her, of course we try to help her as we are the people who like to help fellow students, friends and other people on the world, every one of the seven billion people in the world. But we have to understand that we had to help her better, because her situation was kind of sensitive, in fact her situation was very much sensitive because that was her dream to study in Turkey, and if you take away one person’s dreams from him or her, what would he or she need to do then? We understood that for her studying in Turkey was not just a situation, it was her dream, her lifelong dream maybe. So, as I said before we tried to help her out and thanks to God it worked.

Here is some quick information for prospective students who would like to study in Turkey as well. You have to understand that applying to Turkish university is very easy and getting an acceptance is even easier. But still it takes and requires some legwork and footwork. These are the steps.

First, you have to decide; you have to decide what major would you like to study in a Turkish university. Because deciding is very important. This is the first step, the very first step but maybe the most important step. Because if you would make mistake when deciding which university to attend, it would affect your whole university life and ruin your adult life as well. Also, do you guys remember that there are some young people who are asking me why they need to study in Turkey? I don’t think this is a logical question, furthermore, I do not think this is question that makes sense. So, when somebody asks me this same kind of question nowadays, I know that I have only one thing to do. The only thing that I have to do is I turn back, go find where that students was and reply him or her as ; “Why not study in Turkey?”. Because, what I think was this is a much radical question, is not it? So, when it comes to like this. I know that there are much quality universities in Turkey, consider about there are Harvard University, LSE London School of Economics University, there are also Boston University, Stanford University, Yale University, New York University, NYU, New York State University, City University of New York.. I know all of these. Make sure that. Also, there are a some people who underestimates the power that China has right now. Because it really does not make sense. Most of the people think that China is still and underdeveloped, poor country which produces crap products with low quality. Are you serious? Really? This is a type of question that I am really bored of hearing, it does not make any sense. Come on now; it was 30 years ago. Okay, that was correct back then. 30 years ago China was an underdeveloped country with no strong economy and people were right to assume that Chinese products are crap and as well as Chinese people are poor in general. During that time if a product is labeled as “Made in China”, that would mean that the products is in low quality and is worthless. But, you have to give credit to Chinese people because they are very much hardworking people. I bet that if you travel all around the world, you are not going to find any people more hardworking than Chinese people.  So, when you see a Chinese person you have to understand than that person is probably more hardworking than you are.

Anyway, I do not want talk about Chinese today and I would like to talk about Turkey. What I am trying to say is studying is Turkey is good and you will have many opportunities after you are graduated. That’s why I am always telling to people around, let it be the students that I talk to online or other students that I encounter on fairs, student fairs or higher education fairs; you be better think about Turkey. Okay, we all know that studying in United States has much more advantages, right? You can also say the same thing about United Kingdom, Australia and Canada. But, to be accepted to a American university, or an British, Australian or Canadian university is really hard.  Also, those universities are very much expensive. Do you have any idea about the tuition fees of Harvard? Or New York University? Or, MIT, Stanford etc.? I do not mean to say that it does not worth it, it would definitely worth it. But, what if you do not have that much money and your family also do not have that much money? Then, what you should do?

I think most of the folks who read this article already know that studying in one these countries, United States of America, United Kingdom of England, Australia and Canada, is very much expensive. So, what you should do? Of course, the answer is consider studying in Turkey. Why not? Think about it. In most of the Universities in Turkey, medium of instruction is English; which means it is no different than a university in United States. If you study in United States, United Kingdom, Australia or Canada, the medium of education is going to be English, same with Turkey. Also, you have to make sure that Istanbul is no different than New York, London, Sydney or Toronto, as beautiful as those cities; if not more beautiful.

Okay, folks. That was it for today. Hope this post was clear enough. Was not it? Ok, it depends. I have to admit that. However, please keep in the mind  I will be writing many other post day in and day out, so please bookmark this website, my blog and come back the other day to read my the latest post.

Thanks.
