   Getting in

   International applicants should apply through the university’s official admissions process and confirm the entry requirements, required documents, deadlines, and any language requirement directly on the university website. Because specific international admissions rules are not published here, the safest step is to verify the current procedure with the admissions office before applying.

   How it compares

   Among Indonesia’s 194 universities, Universitas Mulawarman stands out as a large public university in East Kalimantan rather than a small specialist institution. Its size, its position as the oldest tertiary education institution in East Kalimantan, and its multi-campus setup in Samarinda make it a practical option for students who want a broad university environment outside the main Java-based higher education centers.
