Rectorate Building, UIN Online News – Prospective students who were unsuccessful in the National Academic Achievement Selection for State Islamic Higher Education Institutions (SPAN-PTKIN) pathway for admission to Syarif Hidayatullah State Islamic University (UIN) Jakarta need not despair. All study programs offered through SPAN-PTKIN will also be available in the State Islamic Higher Education Entrance Examination (UM-PTKIN) pathway starting April 22.
This announcement was made by Zaenal Muttaqin, Head of the Information and Public Relations Center at UIN Jakarta's Research and Community Service Institute (LP2M), on Thursday (4/3/2025). "Students and Islamic boarding school graduates who weren't successful or eligible for SPAN-PTKIN shouldn't lose heart, as UM-PTKIN still offers excellent opportunities," he stated.
The UM-PTKIN registration period, he explained, will open on Tuesday, April 22, 2025, at 8:00 AM Western Indonesia Time (WIB) and close on Wednesday, May 28, 2025, at 3:00 PM WIB. This pathway offers the same 30 study programs as SPAN-PTKIN:
- Pendidikan Agama Islam
