[egean]

I have a Turkish-British citizen aunt who lives in UK and can provide my expenses does having her as a relative help getting British citizenship? I am aiming to do my Master's degree there and I am curious about if I can somehow get the citizenship.

No it does not. You would have to meet all the requirements yourself as an individual.

To qualify for citizenship, you must have indefinite leave to remain (ILR). Student visas do not lead to indefinite leave to remain on its own.

To qualify for ILR, you need either 5 years on a qualifying visa (not student visa) OR 10 years long residence holding valid visas for the full 10 years.

For both routes to ILR there are mandatory other requirements.

For citizenship, you must hold ILR for 12 month first, before you can apply if you qualify

You have no right to British citizenship through your Aunt and a Tier 4 Student visa doesn't lead to settlement.
