The exam is organized and managed by the Student Selection and Placement Centre (OSYM) twice a year, in the spring and autumn semesters.

The ALES Test is used for applicants intending to study in Turkey, especially those applying for postgraduate studies (graduates) and candidates who wish to work in the faculty (such as research assistant, lecturer, certified translator, etc.)

Some of the universities in Turkey require ALES scores for admittance into the master and doctoral degree programs.

It is also necessary to take this test when selecting candidates who will be sent to universities abroad in Turkey for postgraduate courses. (ILKHA)
