How to Apply for the 2020 İOKBS Exam?
How do you apply for the 2020 İOKBS exam? Applications for the 2020 İOKBS will be completed as described below. The application procedures apply to candidates across Turkey.
- Applications for the İOKBS exam can be submitted through the websites meb.gov.tr, odsgm.meb.gov.tr and eokul.meb.gov.tr.
- Parents may apply in person by going to the school administration where the student is enrolled, provided the student meets the specified eligibility criteria.
- The parent or guardian must submit the “Appendix 1: Declaration of the Student Family’s Financial Status” and its attachments to the school administration to complete the application.
- İOKBS applications begin on February 5, 2020 and will close at the end of business on February 24, 2020.
- During the application process, parents should verify the student’s electronic records for accuracy — including name, surname, mother’s name, father’s name, gender, date of birth, place of birth, any special education needs or disability that would require accommodations during the exam, field, branch and class — and correct any errors before submitting the application.
- The school principal will submit the İOKBS application electronically. The school must provide a printed application document approved by the school administration and signed by the parent, and this document must be retained until the end of the exam.
Once an İOKBS application is approved, no changes can be made electronically. Therefore, parents and school officials must carefully review and confirm all information before completing the application. Applications with incorrect or incomplete information will not be accepted.
