These systems, which considered the common parameters, have quickly followed with their own hierarchical measures by higher education organizations. However, these ranking systems never consider  country’s special conditions. This paper mentions the main principles of a new system for state universities performance in Turkey. The quantitative assessment method depends to six separate parameters such as number of publications and projects, teaching quality, teaching income, teaching structure,  the index for entrepreneurial and innovative university and student satisfaction. The technique provides data for well-balanced and justice decision for the national state universitiesthroughout the country. Summation of all numerical values resulted from six parameters represents total score for the related university. The total score obtained for an university also gives its place in the ranking system of higher education in the country. It is possible the central budget to be shared to all state universities in Turkey by means of this method.
