Ahmet Deniz earns place at Hacettepe Medical Faculty after living in tents

Ahmet Deniz, the son of forest workers in the Akseki district of Antalya, has earned a place at Hacettepe University's English-language Medical Faculty. Despite living in tents for 12 years due to his family's profession in forest logging, Deniz achieved high rankings in the Higher Education Institutions Exam (YKS).

Deniz ranked 636th nationally in the numerical category and 145th in the equal weight category. He stated that his living conditions did not prevent him from pursuing his dream of becoming a doctor and that he intends to use his education to serve his country. Akseki District Governor Yusuf Ilıca visited the family to congratulate Deniz on his academic success.
