The estimated acceptance rate for Hasanuddin University is around 20% to 40%, depending on the program and admission pathway.
Highly competitive programs, such as medicine, dentistry, law, and engineering, tend to have lower acceptance rates, closer to 20% or below, due to the high volume of applicants and the limited number of seats.

Program Demand:
Programs such as medicine, engineering, public health, and marine sciences are some of the most sought-after fields at Hasanuddin University. Therefore, these programs have lower acceptance rates due to the high number of applicants competing for a limited number of seats.
Programs in humanities or social sciences may have a more flexible admission process with a higher acceptance rate, but they still maintain a high level of selectivity compared to other institutions in Indonesia.
International Students:
International students may have a slightly higher acceptance rate than domestic students, particularly for programs that are actively seeking to diversify their student body. However, popular programs like medicine and engineering remain competitive even for international applicants.
Some programs are taught in English, making them more accessible to international students, but applicants are still expected to meet academic and language requirements.
