REGISTRATION, COURSES, EXAMINATIONS, AND CANCELLATION OF REGISTRATION
How can I access OBS?
Students who are newly registered at our Faculty can access the Student Information System (OBS) by creating their initial password through the following link:
https://ogrencihesap.bozok.edu.tr/Default.aspx
When are student ID cards issued? Where can we collect them?
After the final registration procedures are completed, student ID cards are prepared by the Student Affairs Office within approximately one month and delivered to students by their academic advisors or Department Chair's Offices in exchange for a signature.
How should I select my courses during course registration? How can I keep track of the courses I have taken and the courses I need to take?
At the beginning of each semester, all students, except preparatory-class students, are required to register for courses within the period specified in the academic calendar. Students must first select courses they have failed or postponed from previous semesters and then select the courses offered for the current semester. After completing course registration, students submit their registration for advisor approval. The registration becomes final after advisor approval.
Can we take courses from upper semesters during course registration? What is the maximum number of credits we can take?
According to Article 19 of the Yozgat Bozok University Associate and Undergraduate Education, Training and Examination Regulations, a student may take a maximum of 45 ECTS credits in a semester. Students must first select courses carried over from previous semesters and then select the courses offered for the current semester. Students may complete their remaining ECTS credits by taking courses from an upper semester. However, students must ensure that there is no timetable conflict among the courses they select. Otherwise, the system will give priority to courses carried over from previous semesters.
How can I apply for course exemptions?
Students must apply for course exemption within two weeks from the beginning of the semester in which they enroll.
The documents required for exemption are:
- Student Petition
- Transcript
- Approved course contents from the institution from which the student graduated or was deregistered
Can I take courses that have timetable conflicts?
Courses with timetable conflicts cannot be taken because attendance is compulsory.
Why cannot I access courses through BOYSİS even though they appear on my transcript?
You can resolve all questions and problems related to BOYSİS by sending an e-mail to uzem@bozok.edu.tr.
What is the attendance requirement? How many hours of absence result in failure due to absenteeism? Is a medical report accepted as an excuse for absence?
According to Article 30 of the Yozgat Bozok University Associate and Undergraduate Education, Training and Examination Regulations, students must attend at least 70% of theoretical courses and 80% of practical courses in order to be eligible to take the final/end-of-year examination.
A medical report does not exempt a student from the attendance requirement. In other words, a student who does not attend classes while on medical leave is considered absent. However, if a student cannot take a midterm examination due to illness and has a medical report covering the examination date, the student may use the right to take a make-up examination.
Where can we find the dates and locations of examinations held at our Faculty?
Students can follow examination dates and locations through the announcements on the Faculty and Department websites, according to the dates specified in the University's academic calendar.
Who can take the Single-Course Examination? What are the requirements?
Students who have successfully completed all courses required for graduation except one and who have failed only that one course despite fulfilling the attendance requirement may take the Single-Course Examination.
In addition, students in their final semester who have no failing grades but whose GPA is below 2.00 may take the examination if it is determined by the relevant academic unit's board that passing the single course would raise their GPA above 2.00.
How can I cancel my registration?
After completing the required information through the Student Clearance System, the student must apply in person. Students who cannot apply in person may complete the clearance procedure through an authorized representative by presenting the original notarized power of attorney.
The following documents are required:
- Registration Cancellation Petition
- Student Clearance Form
- Student ID Card
What is registration suspension? How can I suspend my registration?
Registration suspension is the process of suspending a student's registration for a maximum of two semesters due to justified reasons, in accordance with Article 36 of the Yozgat Bozok University Associate and Undergraduate Education, Training and Examination Regulations. The reasons for suspension are specified in Article 37.
Periods of registration suspension are not included in the maximum period of study. Students who wish to cancel their registration suspension must apply to the relevant academic unit no later than the end of the fourth week of the relevant semester.
The documents required for registration suspension may include:
- Registration Suspension Petition
- Document supporting the reason for registration suspension
- Medical Board Report
- Certificate of Financial Hardship

What is an Honor/High Honor Student? What are the requirements?

However, students who have received a disciplinary penalty are not eligible for Honor or High Honor status.

DOUBLE MAJOR / MINOR PROGRAMS
What are Double Major and Minor Programs? What are the requirements? How can I apply?
The purpose of the Double Major Program is to enable students who successfully pursue their major undergraduate program to simultaneously study in a second field and obtain a second undergraduate degree.
