With all supporting documents:

  1. Curiculum Vitae (resume, personal data);

  2. Guarantee statement, indicating finalcial ability to undertake education within Indonesia, in the form of a bank statement;

  3. Personal statement, starting that the applicant will not engage in a job and will obey the Indonesian laws and regulations;

  4. Copies of academic record and diplomas;

  5. Recommendation letter from applicant's school/institution;

  6. Recommendation letter from the Indonesian Embassy/Consulate General;

  7. 4 passport size photographs;

  8. A copy of passport showing the applicant's picture and the date of

    issuance and expiration. The passport must be valid and current for the

    period of study in Indonesia;

  9. Statement of good health from applicant's doctor.

 

Should an applicant receive an offer of admission, the university

becomes the facilitator or sponsor of the applicant during the study

periods in Indonesia. Then we will request the applicant's study permit

to the Ministry of National Education in Indonesia. After the study

permit has been issued, UGM will assist you to get a limited stay visa

(VITAS) for 12 months; issued through the nearest Indonesian

Embassy/Consulate in your country.

It will take at least three/four months to arrange the study permit and visa.

We strongly suggest you only leave Indonesia only with this kind of

visa (VITAS). Do not ever try to use another visa such as Cultural

Social Visiting Visa (VKSB) or you will have to go to Immigration

office every month for extension and have to leave Indonesia after six

months to get a new visa.
