Universitas Pelita Harapan (UPH) welcomed 1,500 high school students on the first day of UPH Festival 2019. This year, UPH Open House was back with an exciting and interactive concept: a special social media booth. This special booth offered fun games by using the social media platform, LINE.

In addition to the special booth, there was a presentation and consultation room, campus tours, and an academic showcase available at the Open House to introduce 36 study programs (Prodi) at UPH. They are aimed to provide exposure to high school students in a fun way.

Equipped with this new concept, visiting high school students testified about the excitement and the information they received through the Open House. These are the experiences shared with us by high school students:

Dominikus – Grade 12 at SMA Marsudini Bekasi, Science
“By participating in the Open House, I now have an image of student life on campus and explanations about study programs at UPH. I am considering UPH as my prospective campus.”

Yahya – Grade 12 at SMA Marsudini Bekasi, Science
“I know many things about UPH, especially about their study programs. However, I did not know how much study programs are available here. Before, I thought UPH only has 20 or so study programs, but there are 36 study programs.”

Geraldo – Grade 10 at SMA Tiara Kasih, Social Science
“Previously, I’ve heard of UPH from my parents because they recommended it to me. I was impressed by the academic showcase from the Communications major because the Communications senior explained it in detail. Moreover, I saw, in person, how to properly hold a camera.”

Jennifer – Grade 12 at SMA Marsudini Bekasi, Social Science
“At the campus tour, I visited the Psychology majors’ academic showcase. Previously, I am already interested in Psychology, but after visiting their academic showcase, I am even more interested in learning it.”

Alia – Grade 12 at SMA Marsudini Bekasi, Social Science
“This is my first time visiting UPH and my first impression is that UPH is super cool in terms of buildings, area, and uniqueness. I am also interested in the DKV study program.”
