Independent Student Program

About PMM

Independent Student Selection USU (SMM USU) is a new student selection conducted independently by USU. This selection uses a computer-based examination as a valid and reliable measurement tool in selecting and determining the academic abilities of prospective students. The SMM programs generally are in the form of written exams/tests on SAINTEK and SOSHUM exam materials. USU has greater autonomy in determining the criteria for passing the selection of prospective students in which the criteria for passing the selection are adjusted to the characteristics of the study program. The Independent Student Selection (SMM) is intended to fulfill the capacity of study programs that have yet to be fulfilled through the SNMPTN and SBMPTN pathways, especially some study programs that fewer are interested in.

Undergraduate SMM

The Universitas Sumatera Utara (USU) Undergraduate (S-1) Independent Student Selection (SMM) is a selection held independently by USU. This selection is held to support the new student admissions quota after the SNBT and SNBP pathway, and is intended for fresh high school graduates so they can study at USU in undergraduate programs.

SMMPTN-Barat Program

SMMPTN Barat (West PTN SMM) is an independent selection pathway to enter state higher education institutions (PTN) in the western region of Indonesia. Universitas Sumatera Utara (USU) and 24 other PTNs in the West Indonesia Region together organize SMMPTN Barat with the aim of enabling prospective students to follow an independent selection for new students with the opportunity to choose from 25 organizing universities and become their students, especially at Universitas Sumatera Utara (USU). The main requirements for prospective participants are: physically and spiritually healthy as well as high school (or equivalent) graduates with a valid and legalized graduation certificate. Further information can be found on the official website of SMMPTN Barat,
