The director of the lyceum in Samsun, who graduated from 12 universities, plans to break the world record by obtaining 17 higher education degrees

March 1, 2024

Alpaslan Yuksel, director of the Anatolian Vocational Lyceum Samsun Bafra, graduated from 12 universities at the age of 47 and is currently studying at four more universities. Yuksel's goal is to get into the Guinness Book of Records. To do this, he needs to graduate from a total of 17 universities.

"I graduated from my first university in 2001," says Yuksel. - I graduated from the Ataturk Erzurum University, Faculty of Literature in English. Then I started teaching. I believe that when a teacher stops learning, he becomes a road sign that cannot point the way." The phrase "A teacher must remain a student in order to become a teacher" is very close to me. Based on this phrase, I decided to study again and graduated from 11 more universities - from physiotherapy to public administration, from history to social media management."

It is noteworthy that his son graduated from 3 universities, and his wife graduated from two and is now studying at the third university.
