If you are not placed in the program you want in the main placement, or not placed at all, the additional preference period offers a second chance. Dates and details can change every year, so follow ÖSYM announcements for current information.
What is it?
It is a second period of preferences and placement for the quotas left open after the main placement. Which programs have open quotas is listed in the additional preference guide published by ÖSYM.
Who can apply?
The application conditions (for example whether you were placed in the main placement or your registration status) can vary in detail from year to year. Be sure to read the current conditions in the guide.
Preparation
- Keep your score and success ranking ready.
- Look at the list of programs with open quotas and compare past years' trends.
- Build your list in balance as in the main preferences: the programs you want at the top, safe options below.
- Note the application and registration dates in your calendar.
Remember
After being definitively placed in a program, registration conditions and deadlines matter. Registering or not registering can affect your later options; read the official announcements for details.
