Today, Wednesday, July 1, 2026, excitement among Turkish university entrance exam candidates has reached its peak. According to the official calendar released by the Measuring, Selection and Placement Center (ÖSYM), the evaluation process for the TYT, AYT, and YDT answer sheets, which were held in mid-June, is still ongoing [1]. According to the latest announcements, the final results will be officially released on July 17, 2026, and currently (today, July 1), the scorecards have not yet been posted on the website [2].

How to View Results on the ÖSYM System

Candidates must use the official results portal of the assessment organization to access their scores. The steps to log into the system are as follows:

1. Visit the official website at sonuc.osym.gov.tr.
2. Enter the National Identification Number (T.C. Kimlik Numarası).
3. Enter the candidate password received during registration.

Access is also provided through the electronic government portal (e-Devlet) to provide an alternative for viewing results quickly in case of high website traffic [3].

Details of TYT, AYT, and YDT Exams

The YKS exam consists of three main stages, each playing a decisive role in university admission:
- TYT (Basic Proficiency Test): The first stage that measures the general abilities of the candidates.
- AYT (Field Proficiency Test): The second stage focusing on the specialized knowledge of candidates in the fields of mathematics, science, and literature.
- YDT (Foreign Language Test): Specifically for applicants intending to study in language-related departments.

All these results will be released simultaneously in mid-July, and candidates can view their national ranking and raw scores in each section [2].

Important Recommendations for the Preference Period

Immediately after the results are announced on July 17, the university preference process (Tercih) will begin. Educational experts recommend that candidates prepare their list of preferred departments based on estimated rankings by reviewing last year's guide now. ÖSYM emphasized that candidates should only trust official announcements from the organization and avoid entering unofficial sites that promise early access to results [3].
