On September 15, 2026, SMA Islam Sinar Cendekia Tangerang visited the Faculty of Cultural Sciences (FIB) UGM as part of their study tour program. A total of 88 students, accompanied by their teachers, enthusiastically attended the event to gain a closer look at campus life and the academic environment at UGM.
The event began with opening remarks from the Principal of SMA Islam Sinar Cendekia Tangerang, who motivated the students to make the most of this opportunity to achieve their dream university. “Therefore, gather as much information as possible from today’s meeting,” the Principal advised.
The program continued with a presentation and discussion session led by Salsa from the FIB UGM Public Relations team. During the session, the students actively inquired about the admissions process, including specific requirements for the merit-based track (jalur prestasi). Aside from admission pathways, career prospects for humanities and literature graduates were a primary concern for the students.
Addressing these questions, student representatives Candra and Mayla explained that career opportunities for FIB UGM graduates are broad and adaptable. Given the strong foundation in literature and writing, graduates have great potential in the creative industries—such as becoming writers or editors—as well as opportunities in government institutions, including the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Kemenlu).
Through this visit, the students of SMA Islam Sinar Cendekia Tangerang are expected to gain a clearer understanding of academic life at FIB UGM and feel inspired to pursue their higher education goals.
