Paying for public transport
Ankara public transport uses the Başkent Kart. Cards can be bought and topped up at kiosks and machines at metro stations, including Kızılay and Beytepe. The first transfer between bus and metro is free, which covers the 130 ring bus after the metro. See the official EGO card page.

Night buses (after the metro closes)
EGO runs night lines from the city centre. Only one of them passes Beytepe: line 602-6, highlighted in green below — it stops at the Beytepe metro area in both directions. Always double-check the timetable before relying on one: Official EGO night lines page
Keep in mind that ring bus 130 does not run at these hours. From the Beytepe stop you will need to walk into the campus (about 2.5 km to the Congress Centre) or take a taxi.
