Undergraduate entry requirements for applicants from Indonesia.

Applicants who have completed the Surat Tanda Tamat Belajar Sekolah Menengah Umum Tingkat Atas (STTB - SMA) are required to undertake further study as this qualification does not meet our minimum entry requirements.

Other qualifications

Exceptions for applicants to the College of Science and Engineering

Applicants to undergraduate degree programmes in the College of Science and Engineering with high school qualifications can be considered for entry. Applicants must have:

  • passed the Ijazah SMA/MA or Senior Secondary School Certificate of Completion with an average of 85% including required subjects.
  • successfully completed our internal admissions test.

Internal admissions test

Eligibility for the Internal Admissions Test is limited, and exceptional grades in specific subjects are required. In addition, you must demonstrate outstanding performance on the Admissions Test itself. 

Please note, over the next few years, Internal Admissions Tests will be phased out as new International Foundation Programme pathways are introduced to better support student success and progression. 

Applicants with any other qualifications than those listed above will usually be required to complete a Foundation Year before entering the University.

International Foundation Programme

The University of Edinburgh does not currently accept the above national qualification for direct entry to undergraduate study.  

However, our International Foundation Programme (IFP) offers a route into many undergraduate degree programmes at the University of Edinburgh. 

The IFP is designed to prepare international students who are not eligible for direct entry into undergraduate study at the University of Edinburgh.  

This pre-undergraduate programme is a full-time, one year programme carefully tailored to give international students the experience and skills required to succeed at undergraduate level and help build confidence with academic English.
