Student Fit Index

A transparent decision aid for international students researching universities in North Cyprus. Side by side, source-cited, designed to be questioned.

v1.0 — all seven categories scored, for every university. Each sub-metric is graded 0–100 from one of three evidence sources: our verified database (programmes, fees, accreditations, scholarships), geography computed from campus coordinates (distance to the city, coast access, dorms near campus), or a documented page on the university's own website. Every score links to its source and carries a confidence level. This measures how clearly a university documents itself for international students — not its prestige.

Adding a category, removing one, or changing a weight is a versioned methodology change — never a silent edit.

What it is

A decision aid, end to end source-cited.

Each value carries a source URL, a confidence level, and a verification date. When data is unavailable, the scorecard says so — never silently filled with zero.

What it is not

  • · Not an official academic ranking.
  • · Not a measure of teaching or research output.
  • · Not aggregated student reviews.
  • · No LinkedIn or alumni profile scraping. Career data, when used, is manual, aggregate, anonymised, and clearly marked beta.
