We live near the university she will probably go to-in İzmir(Turkey's 3rd city). My wife has deep reservations about letting her baby go to the only other viable city with good universities--İstanbul. İt is a very dangerous city and my wife wasnt permitted to go there by her father!
Kids in Turkey tend to do as their parents command and truth be told actually want to stay close to home (and comforts)-it did my wife no harm and she got 2 first class degrees from the local uni.
