ULM Finalizes Preparations for the 2026 Computer-Based Test-Based Test (UTBK-SNBT), Ready to Serve Over 11,000 Participants
Banjarmasin – Lambung Mangkurat University (ULM) demonstrated its full readiness to successfully implement the 2026 Computer-Based Test-Based National Selection (UTBK-SNBT) through a committee preparatory meeting held on Friday (April 17, 2026).
This meeting is a strategic step for ULM to ensure optimal performance of all technical and service aspects, given the high level of interest from participants choosing ULM as both an exam location and a study destination.
This year, ULM has prepared a seating capacity of 12,900 participants, with 11,358 UTBK participants scheduled to take the exam at ULM. Meanwhile, the total number of SNBT applicants who chose ULM is 11,909, including 2,894 applicants through the KIP-Kuliah pathway.
The UTBK-SNBT (University of Muhammadiyah University) will be held from April 21 to 29, 2026, divided into two sessions each day: the morning session starting at 7:45 a.m. WITA (Central Indonesian Time) and the afternoon session starting at 1:30 p.m. WITA (Central Indonesian Time).
To support the smooth running of the exam, ULM has prepared 24 computer laboratories spread across nine locations, with a total of 645 computers. These locations cover various campus facilities, such as the General Building, the LPMPP Building, the Postgraduate Building, and the faculties within ULM. (The layout and location of the UTBK rooms can be accessed here.)
In addition to infrastructure readiness, ULM also ensures the principle of inclusivity in the exam administration. Five participants with disabilities will be taking the UTBK at ULM, consisting of participants with physical disabilities, deafness, and speech impairments, who will be provided with appropriate facilities.
Through these thorough preparations, Lambung Mangkurat University affirms its commitment to providing a fair, transparent, and friendly selection process for all participants.
ULM’s readiness reflects not only the quality of its exam administration but also the university’s strategic role in supporting a credible national selection system. This also strengthens ULM’s position as a university that continuously strives to provide the best service to prospective students from diverse backgrounds throughout Indonesia.
