ExploreAbout this exam
The International Undergraduate Program (IUP) is the English-taught undergraduate track listed on Universitas Gadjah Mada's admissions portal, admission.ugm.ac.id, under the site's IUP section. UGM describes itself there as home to 20 faculties and schools, 285+ study programs, and 64,000+ students, and the IUP sits alongside the regular Sarjana–Sarjana Terapan pathway as one of the routes into undergraduate study. Candidates should treat IUP as a program-level information set rather than a single written test: the portal organizes the IUP content into six blocks - study program description, study program capacity (daya tampung), study program selectivity (selektivitas), selection schedule, single tuition fee (uang kuliah tunggal, UKT), and registration documents. That structure tells you what to research before applying: which programs open IUP seats, how many places each has, how competitive each has historically been, when each selection stage falls, what tuition band applies, and which documents must be uploaded. Preparation therefore means reading each of those six blocks for your target program, assembling documents early, and tracking the schedule. Note that the portal publishes no question count, duration, passing score, fee, or retake rule for IUP selection, so verify those details directly with UGM admissions before relying on any figure.
What you'll study
About IUP UGM preparation
What exactly does the IUP selection consist of?
The UGM admissions portal presents IUP through six information blocks: program description, capacity, selectivity, schedule, tuition fee, and registration documents. It does not publish a question count, test duration, or passing score for IUP selection. Confirm the actual instrument and stages with UGM admissions before you plan your preparation.
Who is the IUP intended for?
It is an undergraduate entry route at UGM, listed on the admissions site next to the regular Sarjana–Sarjana Terapan pathway, and it also appears in the university's international prospective student pages. Candidates should check the program description for each study program to see whether the IUP track fits their background and goals.
Can I retake the IUP selection if I am not admitted?
The source material does not state any retake or reapplication rule for IUP. Do not assume a repeat attempt is permitted or that results carry over between cycles. Ask UGM admissions directly through [email protected] or (+62 274) 6492626 before planning around a second attempt.
How much does IUP cost?
Tuition for the IUP track is described through the single tuition fee (Uang Kuliah Tunggal, UKT) block on the admissions portal. The source text does not list any amount, so no figure can be quoted here. Open the UKT page for your target study program and confirm the applicable band with UGM admissions.
Which study programs offer IUP seats and how many places are there?
Capacity is published per study program under the Daya Tampung section of the IUP pages, and each program's description sits in its own block. Numbers differ by program, so check the capacity entry for the specific program you want rather than assuming a university-wide figure.
How competitive is IUP admission?
The portal devotes a separate block to study program selectivity (Selektivitas), which is where competitiveness is reported. Because selectivity is presented per program, compare your target programs there instead of relying on general impressions. The source does not publish an overall acceptance rate or a minimum score.
When should I start preparing and in what order?
Work through the portal in the order it presents: read the program description, then capacity, then selectivity, so you understand your odds before committing. Then note the selection schedule, prepare the registration documents, and finally confirm the tuition band. Starting with documents early avoids last-minute gaps in your upload.
What documents do I need to register?
The Dokumen Pendaftaran block on the IUP pages lists the required registration documents. The source text does not enumerate them, so read that block for your program and prepare certified copies and translations in advance. Missing or unclear documents are a common reason applications stall, so verify formats with UGM admissions.
Where do I apply and whom do I contact?
Applications go through the UGM admissions portal at admission.ugm.ac.id. For questions, the portal lists [email protected] and (+62 274) 6492626, plus social accounts under admisiugm. The Directorate of Education and Teaching is based at Jalan Pancasila (Boulevard), Bulaksumur, Yogyakarta 55281.
What is the most common preparation mistake?
Treating IUP as a single exam with fixed published cut-offs. The portal publishes program-level description, capacity, selectivity, schedule, tuition, and documents, but no question count, duration, or passing score. Candidates who skip the selectivity and capacity blocks often target programs where their chances are weakest.
