Ten universities in North Cyprus teach Nursing at undergraduate level, with annual fees running from EUR 1,400 to EUR 5,000 and USD 4,200 to USD 6,400, depending on currency track and scholarship. Eight of the ten teach in English, seven in Turkish, and several — CIU, EMU, FIU, NEU and UoK — run parallel tracks in both. One program, University of City Island's (ADAK), has no published fee on file. Program-specific accreditation is rare: only two universities, EUL and GAU, hold it.
What to know first
In USD, Bahçeşehir Cyprus University (BAU) charges USD 4,200 with no scholarship reduction, while Eastern Mediterranean University (EMU) charges USD 6,400, also with no reduction — both fixed prices regardless of scholarship eligibility. In EUR, University of Kyrenia (UoK) comes in lowest after scholarship at EUR 1,400, versus Cyprus Aydın University (CAU) at EUR 5,000. Two universities carry program-level accreditation relevant to Nursing: Girne American University (GAU), accredited by HEPDAK for its School of Nursing, and European University of Lefke (EUL), covered under AHPGS.
Why this matters
The scholarship structure splits this field in two. BAU and EMU post flat USD fees with no discount at all, while EUR-track universities apply scholarships that cut published fees substantially — UoK's standard fee drops from EUR 5,600 to EUR 1,400, CAU's from EUR 10,000 to EUR 5,000, and GAU's from EUR 8,000 to EUR 2,800. That means the sticker price tells you little; the after-scholarship figure is what most applicants actually pay. Combined with the English/Turkish split across eight and seven universities respectively, comparing programs means checking currency, language and scholarship terms together, not fee alone.
Accreditation context
Of the 10 universities offering Nursing, only two show program-specific accreditation on file: GAU's School of Nursing holds HEPDAK accreditation, and EUL's Nursing program falls under its AHPGS scope, which also covers several other health and social-science fields there. The remaining eight — ADAK, BAU, CAU, CIU, EMU, FIU, NEU and UoK — have no program-level accreditation captured in this data; they carry institutional recognition only, through YÖDAK/YÖK. None of these accreditations has been stated here as enabling licensure outside TRNC. Confirm current validity dates for HEPDAK and AHPGS directly against the source before applying.
