UIN Syarif Hidayatullah is a public university, meaning its admissions process is competitive due to high demand from students across Indonesia and abroad.
The university participates in the national selection processes, such as:
SNBP (Seleksi Nasional Berdasarkan Prestasi): A merit-based selection process that evaluates high school grades and achievements.
SNBT (Seleksi Nasional Berdasarkan Tes): A test-based national entrance exam.
Mandiri (Independent Selection): The university also conducts its own entrance exams for students who did not get selected through the national routes.
Acceptance Rate Estimates:
The exact acceptance rate for UIN Syarif Hidayatullah is not publicly disclosed, but based on available information, it is estimated to range from 10% to 30%, depending on the program and admission pathway.
Highly competitive programs like Medicine and Law tend to have lower acceptance rates, around 10% or less, due to the limited number of seats and high competition.
Less competitive programs, such as some in the Faculty of Islamic Studies or Humanities, may have slightly higher acceptance rates, closer to 20% to 30%.
Admission through SNBP (merit-based) tends to be the most competitive as it relies on students' academic records from high school.
The Mandiri entrance route typically has a higher acceptance rate compared to national exams, but it remains competitive, especially for in-demand faculties.
Factors Affecting Acceptance Rates:
Program Demand: Programs like Medicine, Islamic Economics, and Law are in high demand, making them much harder to get into. Faculties related to Islamic Studies, such as Sharia Law and Da'wah, also attract many applicants.
Quotas for Certain Programs: Some faculties have limited quotas due to the need for specialized facilities (e.g., Medicine and Engineering), resulting in lower acceptance rates.
Selection Pathway: Students applying through SNBP based on high school grades face tougher competition, while the SNBT exam route may have a slightly higher chance, depending on the student's test performance.
International Applicants:
UIN Syarif Hidayatullah also accepts international students, particularly in Islamic studies programs. The competition for international students may be different, with a focus on academic qualifications and language proficiency (Bahasa Indonesia or Arabic, depending on the program).
