Non-discriminatory Admissions Policy<\/strong><\/p>

Kadir Has University is a foundation university that complies with the Article 10 of the Turkish Constitution states that everyone is equal before the law without distinction regarding language, race, color, sex, political opinion, philosophical belief, religion & sect, or other grounds, and Council of Higher Education (Y\u00d6K), which regulates the higher education in T\u00fcrkiye, rules and regulations within its all procedures.

Kadir Has University\u2019s Policy Against Harassment and Discrimination<\/strong> and KHAS Barrier-free Commission<\/strong><\/p>

At Kadir Has University, we are committed to fostering an inclusive environment where non-discrimination is a core principle. Our university implements various practices to ensure equal access to resources and opportunities for all members of our community, regardless of their individual needs.<\/p>

 In our Information Center, we offer equal and unrestricted services to everyone. For instance, a doctoral student in the field of law, who is visually impaired, receives full support through digitization of books and research materials. We utilize assistive technologies such as OCR (Optical Character Recognition) to convert printed resources into accessible digital formats, enabling seamless access for visually impaired users.<\/p>

 At our language school, we have installed ramps and elevators to accommodate physically disabled students, ensuring that their classes are held on the first floor. For students with hearing impairments, exams are tailored according to medical reports. If a student requires auditory accommodations, such as the use of headphones or a specific voice, we ensure that these preferences are met. In cases where individual assistance is necessary, we make special arrangements for personalized support during exams. Additionally, we provide writing assistance for students facing challenges with written communication.<\/p>

Our commitment to inclusion extends to adapting academic schedules when needed. For example, last year, we adjusted the entire semester schedule for a student who needed afternoon physical therapy by ensuring their classes were only held in the mornings, while their classmates’ schedules were kept consistent to avoid disruption.<\/p>

 Through these practices, we continually strive to create an equitable and supportive academic environment where all students can thrive, regardless of their unique circumstances.<\/p>
