Turkey Reschedules Key Exams Due to NATO Summit Security

The examination schedule for the 2026 Academy Entrance Exam (AGS) and the Teacher Proficiency Test (ÖABT) has been altered. Initially planned for July 12, the exams have been rescheduled to Sunday, July 26, 2026. This change is attributed to security measures implemented during a NATO summit held in Ankara.

Candidates will be able to access their exam entry documents and check their designated examination locations through the ÖSYM Candidate Operations System (AİS). This access is typically granted about 10 days prior to the examination date. Applicants will need their Turkish identification numbers and candidate passwords to log in and retrieve their information.

The Ministry of National Education (MEB) has confirmed the new date, ensuring that candidates are informed of the revised timeline. The postponement aims to accommodate the security requirements of the international summit while minimizing disruption to the examination process for the thousands of applicants.
