Abstract

With the initiative of Council of Higher Education (HEC), all graduates from high schools almost have a chance to take a place in undergraduate programs because of the newly founded universities in all cities in Türkiye. The problems arise in the first year of higher education for the students who have not enough competences in mathematics. The program’s courses in universities are similar but the enrolled students in programs are not homogeneous in their mathematics backgrounds. No Youth Left Behind (NYLB) in placement is achieved for schooling purposes, but is it reasonable to say NYLB in first year mathematics is achieved. Thus, the aim of study is to find the way for achievement in transition and first year mathematics in higher education. In order to accomplish the aim, the head of mathematics department in citywide should be co-head with the head of departments at university.
