UI Chancellor Prof. Heri Hermansyah Guarantees Students Can Attend Lectures Without Financial Constraints

he Chancellor of the University of Indonesia (UI) Prof. Dr. Ir. Heri Hermansyah, S.T., M.Eng., IPU., guaranteed that every student accepted by UI, especially in the regular program, will not experience obstacles in pursuing education due to financial problems. He said that the determination of the Single Tuition Fee (UKT) for the Regular Class Undergraduate Program and the Vocational Education Program is adjusted to the socio-economic background data of the parents/persons responsible for the education costs.

"For regular program students, we must be able to guarantee that the UKT is in accordance with their abilities and is fair," said Prof. Heri after being officially inaugurated as the Chancellor of UI for the 2024-2029 period at the Purnomo Prawiro Multipurpose Hall, UI Depok Campus, on Wednesday (4/12).

He added that various mechanisms have been developed by UI to overcome this. UI has implemented a policy of determining the amount of UKT education costs fairly based on data and the results of an evaluation of the ability of the person responsible for education costs. For this reason, UI has divided the UKT determination into 11 groups, starting from the lowest rate of IDR 500,000 to the highest reaching IDR 20,000,000.

Furthermore, Prof. Heri said, in addition to determining fair UKT, UI will also seek scholarships for students who need them so they can... survive during their education at UI. "If there are UI students in regular classes who are unable to afford it, please inform us immediately. If there is anything we missed," said Prof. Heri.

Information regarding UKT rates for UI Undergraduate Program and Vocational Education Program students of the 2024 intake, whether accepted through the Achievement-Based National Selection (SNBP), Test-Based National Selection (SNBT), or Independent Selection (PPKB, Achievement Path, SIMAK) can be seen on the page ukt.ui.ac.id.
