According to Dr. Ir. Setia Budi Sasongko, DEA as the Head of the LP2MP Undip in the interview on Monday (22/3) “Psychology becomes the favorite choice with the total number of applicants around 1.750. The change of the favorite study program is caused by the society’s consideration that Psychology is important, either in getting or creating the occupation. Indeed, this year Undip’s SNMPTN applicants have mostly chosen the Psychology Program followed by the Medical Program which still become the favorite one in the second place. Previously, the interest on the Medical Program was higher than other Undip’s program for the past few years. Yet, Undip only had a relatively small capacity. So that, the society had to choose another programs as the alternatives.”

“Undip which has became the PTN BH will always be ready to welcome the best new student candidates. Meanwhile, for the capacity of the presentation at Undip, SNMPTN was 20%, SBMPTN was 30% and the independent selection (UM) was 50%, ” he explained.

If  those applicants failed on the SNMPTN selection, they still have another chance through the SBMPTN, IUP (International Undergraduate Program), and the Ujian Mandiri selection. So, they should keep the spirit, and follow the selection systems to enter the state higher education isntitutions and always take care of your health.” he said.
