Within the scope of the protocol signed between the General Directorate of Migration Management and the Higher Education Institution, a certificate of appreciation was issued to the administrative staff and academics who contributed to the execution of the residence permit procedures for foreign students, post-doctoral researchers and academics and their families at Ondokuz Mayıs University. With the foreign students submitting their residence permit files to the university without coming to the Provincial Directorate, the procedures were facilitated, and the loss of time for foreign students was prevented.
