Purposive sampling was used and the universities that had put their promotional videos on their web pages, were investigated. The research data were obtained by typing the written and verbal statements in the promotional videos. The data were analyzed by using content analysis. In conclusion, eight positioning strategies pursued by the universities were defined. Furthermore, the research indicated that there were some differences in positioning strategies between public and foundation universities.
