The Bidikmisi Program is an educational fee assistance from the Government for high school graduates (SMA) or equivalent who have good academic potential but have economic limitations.
The Bidikmisi program is different from scholarships that focus on providing awards or financial support to those who excel. However, the achievement requirements for the Bidikmisi program are aimed at ensuring that recipients of the Bidikmisi program are selected from those who truly have the potential and willingness to complete higher education.
Being one of the leading universities in Indonesia, Undip has committed to support the Bidikmisi program which has been organized by the Government, so that every citizen has the right to education and can increase equitable access to higher education levels.
