The tuition fee is 36,500 USD per year.

Arts and Social Sciences programs bring together study across the humanities and social sciences, covering fields such as history, psychology, economics, and cultural studies within a flexible curriculum that does not require early specialization. Coursework typically includes writing and critical thinking seminars, introductory courses spanning several disciplines, and research methodology, helping students build a broad intellectual foundation before choosing a specific area of focus. Students strengthen their ability to analyze texts and data, construct arguments, and communicate effectively across disciplinary boundaries. Graduates commonly pursue careers in communications, education, government, nonprofit organizations, or business, and many go on to graduate study in a specific humanities or social science field. This bachelor's program at Sabancı University in İstanbul, Turkey runs for 4 years and is taught in English, giving students access to international scholarship across the humanities and social sciences and preparing them for English-language academic or professional settings. İstanbul's role as a historical and contemporary meeting point of cultures offers a relevant environment for interdisciplinary study of society and ideas. The 4-year curriculum typically begins with broad exploration across disciplines before allowing students to concentrate on particular interests in later years. This program suits students who are undecided about a specific discipline or who value an interdisciplinary approach to the humanities and social sciences.
