Cost of Studying in Indonesia (2027) for International Students

Indonesia's leading public universities charge foreign undergraduates roughly IDR 15 million to IDR 67 million a semester in 2026-27, plus a one-time development fee, and run international classes taught in English. Foreign degree students need an E30B student visa sponsored by the university, a limited stay permit (ITAS) and a Ministry study permit, and may not work while studying. The government's KNB Scholarship funds bachelor's, master's and doctoral study for students from developing countries.
