    Our school have received a number of brilliant students. These students want to takecourses in summer to graduate early to peruse an early career or continue their further

    studies. This thing is not only beneficial for the students but it will also save funding

    of the university due to their early graduation.

    There are a specific number of International Students that are taking double majors.These students utilize the summer to catch up with their additional courses and to

    complete their degree before the estimated time. Thus they save university from

    additional costs that is going to be spent on their extra academic year.

    We all are new to Turkish food and sometimes the meals at school are not reallycompatible with the taste we have developed in our lives. There are some students

    who spend the cash on buying the provisions and cooking themselves. With the cash

    money, they might enjoy the luxury of eating fruits as well.

    Living is not only eating and students have to buy some little items for dressing,bathing, washing, mobile communication etc. We cannot buy these things from

    Bakkal as our food scholarship is limited, 15 TL per day average while two time

    meals, on an average cost 16TL. Cash scholarship will help students to meet these

    costs and live in ease.

    Moreover, Ramdhan and Bayram are within summer school time so with this cashmoney students can be more confortable during these occasions. In fact, it will add to

    their joy on Bayram and will ease down the intensity of Ramadhan.

    Information came from a credible official source that University will not provide cash to

    Turkish Students as well. Respected, there is a huge difference between the situation of

    Turkish students and the International Students.

    Most of the Turkish students that receive cash scholarship are being funded by someorganizations and government as well due to their success but International Students

    only have University scholarship. It means that even without cash scholarship Turkish

    Students can easily survive because of alternative sources of funding but International

    students cannot.

    Turkish students get more food scholarship, so that can buy their basic necessitiesfrom the Bakkal, while International Students cannot.

    Most of the Turkish Students are from Istanbul or have relatives in Istanbul so theyhave option to spend their time with families to refresh themselves, at least on

    weekends but in case of International Students the only option we have is to go out

    with friends that obviously cost a little amount of cash money.

    They can be funded and are being funded by their parents while when an InternationalStudents wants to get money from his parents; it costs 10%-15% commission.

    Moreover, most of the International Students come from middle class families and

    their parents cannot afford to send huge amounts due to high conversion rates of TL.

    We totally understand and respect the scholarship contract that is for9 months only yet we

    ask for a moral support from the university. University has been funding people in last

    summer so they should continue doing the same act in this summer as well. There has been

    several requests in past about increasing scholarships or providing plane tickets but I (Abdul

    Basit Adeel) believe that they were illogical. Yet this demand is ethical and will not costuniversity too much. It should be considered in order to keep the morale of International

    Student, high.

    Secondly, we dont want this thing to be done for this summer only. It would be better to

    make a permanent amendment in the scholarship policy so that next time it will not create

    any discomfort. Moreover, this act will get more and more International Students to get

    enrolled in the Summer Semester. In addition to that it might affect the prospective

    International Students.

    We believe that university has resources to meet the costs of this request. We also hope that

    we will hear something good from you.

    Regards,

    International Students Community.
