DİM's own percentage
Average score of entrants, by specialty group
Each figure is the average score of the students an institution admitted in that specialty group that year, as published by the State Examination Center (DİM). It is an average, not a cut-off or a minimum: it pools every specialty the institution offers in the group, so many of those admitted scored lower, and a single specialty can need much more or much less. DİM does not split group III into its two subgroups here.
| Group | 2025 | 2024 |
|---|---|---|
| Group I | 277.4 | 276.9 |
| Group II | 223.7 | 220.2 |
| Group III | 317.8 | 277.8 |
| Groups I–IV together (DİM's figure) | 264.0 | 246.8 |
For specialty groups I–IV the admission score is out of 700: up to 300 from the first stage (for this year's school-leavers, the school-leaving exam) and up to 400 from the second, group-specific stage, according to the State Examination Center. Group V admits on the first stage and a special-ability exam, so its averages are on a different footing and are never set against groups I–IV.
Average score of entrants, 2015–2025
DİM's series of each institution's average, 2015–2025, excludes specialties that need a special-ability exam, so it is not the same figure as the group table's overall I–IV average. Between 2023 and 2024 the averages rose sharply almost everywhere — the median institution by 22.3 points — so years before 2024 are shown as history, not compared with 2024 onwards. The data does not say why.
| 2015 | 2016 | 2017 | 2018 | 2019 | 2020 | 2021 | 2022 | 2023 | 2024 | 2025 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 234.3 | 243.9 | 229.5 | 207.0 | 244.6 | 262.9 | 248.4 | 226.5 | 226.9 | 246.8 | 264.0 |
Places by section
DİM plans places separately for applicants from the Azerbaijani and Russian sections of school (the language of their schooling and exams), and some places in a joint competition open to both. A joint competition is not a language of instruction; where a specialty is taught in English, its name says so.
| Year | Azerbaijani section | Russian section | Joint competition | All places |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 1,215 | 0 | 15 | 1,230 |
| 2024 | 1,140 | 0 | 15 | 1,155 |
State-funded and fee-paying admission
Fee-paying places filled is DİM's own percentage: students admitted on fee-paying terms out of the places on which fee-paying admission was held. “—” where DİM publishes no figure.
| Year | Places planned | Admitted, state-funded | State-only places unused | Fee-paying places | Admitted, fee-paying | Filled |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 1,230 | 98 | 0 | 1,132 | 1,046 | 92.4% |
| 2024 | 1,155 | 67 | 0 | 1,088 | 963 | 88.5% |
Admitted in 2024: 426 men and 604 women (DİM).
Specialties, 2024 (20)
DİM's 2024 specialty file, as published: the places planned and the students admitted in the main and additional rounds, and how many of them on state-funded places. Its totals do not match the institution tables above (for several institutions its planned places are higher, and the data does not say why), so its numbers are never added to or compared with them. Specialty names are DİM's, in Azerbaijani. 1 distinct specialty says in the name that it is taught in English.
