The term "College" may be confusing for those who are new to UPH College. However, we chose this name because of our uniqueness in preparing students extensively for university-level education with our teaching methods and the types of assignments we provide.

We train our students to think more critically and to express their thoughts in written form. With this approach, the time they need to adapt to university-level education can be shortened, allowing them to achieve more.

UPH College is registered as a school with a national curriculum and accredited with an 'A' rating.

To enroll in UPH College, students must have completed junior high school or its equivalent, participate in a series of entrance tests provided by us, and have a sufficient history of achievements that meet our criteria for new student admissions. Please click on the 'ADMISSION' page for more information.

If a student who is currently enrolled in a non-national curriculum system and does not have a previous level of education diploma (junior high school) intends to transfer to UPH College (a school that adopts the national curriculum system), there are two ways to smoothly continue education with the national system in Indonesia.

In principle, students need to have a national junior high school diploma to take the high school graduation exam at UPH College. Since the student is currently considered not to have it, the student needs to fulfill one of the following requirements : Requirement 1: Take the package B exam to obtain a junior high school diploma. The government conducts the Package B Exam to obtain a junior high school diploma twice a year, in June and November. Registration for the June exam closes in January, while registration for the November exam closes in June. Students can register directly with the education department by bringing their elementary school diploma.

If you reside in Tangerang, you can visit the Tangerang Education Office and inquire through Mr. Gumelar (08129536226) at the Cisadane Tangerang Building. After registering, students will be assigned to the nearest Community Learning Center (PKBM) from their place of residence, where students will take the exam. If students pass this Package B exam, they will have a national junior high school diploma. Requirement 2: Equate the student's diploma from the international assessment system to the national system. If the student goes through the equating process and receives a letter stating that the equating was successful, that equating letter serves as a replacement for the student's junior high school diploma. The replacement diploma will be used to take the high school graduation exam at UPH College later on. During the equating process (before the equating results are released), students will be given a temporary letter stating that the equating is in progress. This letter can already be used to continue education at UPH College. However, if the equating results come out and they do not meet UPH College's assessment standards, the decision to accept the student at UPH College will be reviewed. Equating needs to be done after the student is accepted at UPH College. The equating form must be filled out online first at MPDM Diknas. When filling out the form, students will be asked to download previous class report documents and other related information about the student's learning activities from the original school (descriptive reports, etc.). Original or legalized documents along with the filled out form printout must then be brought to the Central Ministry of Education. The Central Ministry of Education office is located in the Ministry of Education Building in Jakarta - Jl. Jend Sudirman Building E, 14th floor (near Ratu Plaza). If students have submitted these original documents, the equating process can only begin. The equating process takes 2 weeks to 3 months, depending on the density of equating applications received by the Ministry of Education.

The equating results must be received no later than one month after the start of the new academic year

After completing their education at UPH College, students can continue their education at the university level both domestically and/or internationally. If they choose to continue at Universitas Pelita Harapan (UPH) Tangerang, students will receive the benefit of transferring course credits.

Up until now, UPH College graduates have only been able to transfer course credits to UPH.

The Problem-Based Learning curriculum and assignments during schooling at UPH College will help students when continuing their university education both domestically and internationally. Assignments at UPH College are in the form of papers (essays/compositions) to familiarize students with research, critical, and analytical thinking.

With a national diploma, graduates can continue their studies domestically and/or internationally. The procedures depend on the chosen university.

Our main medium of instruction is Bahasa Indonesia, but it's possible that some subjects are taught in English. The UPH College assignment system in the form of papers requires students to conduct research, whether through books in the library or via the internet. This will expose students to English in their daily learning activities.
