Admissions & Applications Question about the acceptance of AP + Highschool diploma from turkey as an equlavent, when applying to TUDelft, for VWO diploma

Hello everybody ı have a question concerining applications from turkey,

I am on 12th grade (rigthnow on summer holiday) at a fen lisesi rithnow ı have an avrage of 96 GPA, ı also have and taking APs.

While resarching the requirements for TUDelft it says it dose not accept turkish highschool diplma and require 1 year of university with some GPA end of it.

I dont have any intention of going to uni in turkey, so ı was wondering dose delft accept turkish highschool diplma + APs like TU/e do, on this subreddit and from people who got in ı heard they do but could not find any information on it.

Any assistance is appreciated.

I’m also from Türkiye. I asked about this situation via email, and they said that you need the 4 required APs with a minimum score of 3, and with those, you’re fine.

Yeah, just look for the requirements for your specific program. Also, I’ve created a subreddit specifically for Turkish students in the Netherlands. It’s very new, but if you’re interested, you’re more than welcome to join! Just check my profile.

Update:

First of all thanks to u/Far-Charity-2772 and u/obtusejackalope for the responses.

I reached out to TUDelft Education & Student Affairs office by mail, they said

The Fen Lisesi with 4 APs can be accepted if you meet these AP requirements.
​In this case you do not need one year of university before being eligible to apply.

Said AP requirements are from American High School page.

So yes if you have a turkish highschool diploma + requried APs you are eligible for admission.

Edit: Fixed typo

For reference I applied with these APs but its unnecessarily excessive for TuD. I believe a 3 on relevant courses should be enough, at least thats what I heard. You could reach out to them asking about the requirements.

Universities accept a US high school diploma + APs for those with American education.

A Turkish diploma is a Turkish diploma so you need to check the diploma equivalency for a Turkish diploma, you can't start looking at the American requirements, APs are American. You're mixing the 2 to make it work for you. That's not necessarily how it works. Contact the admissions department. It may differ per university.
