Hayrat Foundation supports “KYK Dormitories Ottoman Turkish Competition” which is organized by Higher Education Student Loan and Housing Board of Turkey (KYK). We give content, material, educational and organizational support to the competition. All the university students staying in state-run dormitories can join the contest.
After registrations and informative seminars, there are going to be six-week-courses, 24 hours in total. Young students will be able to study a variety of areas of Ottoman Turkish with the help of a special book prepared for the competition. They will see themselves and show everyone that learning Ottoman Turkish is not unachievable. They will also have a great learning outcome which will be a major contribution to their academic life.
Application to the competition ends on March 16th. The semi finals are going to be held on April 21st in provinces. Turkey final is going to be on May 9th 2018 in Ankara.
Top three students in semi finals will be awarded a one-year subscription to Ottoman Educational and Cultural Periodical (Osmanlıca Dergisi).
In Turkey final, the winner will be awarded ₺5000, the second will be awarded ₺4000, and the third will be awarded ₺3000. Moreover, top five students will be able to join a Quds and Balkans trip.
