Turkey – Study Destination

Study in Turkey

Turkey has over 200 universities. We know which ones are right for students from East Africa.

Turkey is home to over 200 universities, several of which rank among the top 500 globally. Tuition fees are significantly lower than Europe or North America — and in many cases lower than private universities in Uganda itself. Degrees are internationally recognised and taught in English across a growing number of programmes. For East African students looking for quality without the price tag of a Western education, Turkey is one of the most practical choices available right now.

Şahin Tours & Travel has a representative based in Ankara, Turkey. When you arrive, someone already knows your name.
