Upcoming Student Recruitment Fairs in Indonesia – 2025 Schedule
Participants of our Education Fairs in Indonesia
World-class colleges, universities, and business schools are participating in our student recruitment fairs in Indonesia. Here is just a small selection.
Why Recruit Students in Indonesia?
Indonesia is one of Southeast Asia’s most promising student recruitment markets, and it’s only just getting started. With a massive youth population, a rising middle class, and growing demand for international degrees, the country offers real opportunities across all study levels. Families are thinking globally, students are planning early, and the appetite for education abroad is strong and expanding.
If your institution is looking to grow its international student base, Indonesia deserves your attention.
K–12 recruitment: Early Interest, Long-Term Potential
One of the biggest growth areas in Indonesia right now is early-stage recruitment. International and bilingual schools, especially in cities like Jakarta, Surabaya, Medan, and Bandung, are booming. These schools follow IB, Cambridge, or national-plus curricula and produce students who are globally minded, English-proficient, and ready to take their next step abroad.
We’re seeing more families exploring foundation programs, high school boarding options, and even summer enrichment or short-term study abroad in places like Singapore, Australia, and the UK. If you want to build a future pipeline of well-prepared students, these private school communities are where the conversation begins.
Participation in private school fairs, as part of our education fairs in Indonesia, is an essential way to connect directly with these families, right when they’re actively considering next steps. It’s targeted, it’s timely, and it delivers results.
Undergraduate recruitment
Indonesia continues to be a solid undergraduate market for destinations like Australia, the UK, and the U.S., but there’s clear momentum for Canada, Germany, and even regional neighbors offering affordability and post-study options. Indonesian students, and their parents, are comparing costs, visas, and work rights more than ever.
The most in-demand subjects remain consistent: business, engineering, IT, and health sciences, with growing interest in data science, environmental studies, and creative industries. Many students are choosing foundation years or pathway routes to bridge gaps in language or academics. If your institution offers clear progression paths, this is a receptive audience.
Regional education fairs across Java, Sumatra, and Bali are your chance to tap into this interest, meet students face-to-face, and explain what makes your programs stand out. You’ll reach both high-volume hubs and fast-growing secondary cities where competition is still limited.
Postgraduate: Scholarships, Skills, and Serious Intent
Postgraduate recruitment
At the postgraduate level, Indonesia punches above its weight. Programs like LPDP and DIKTI are backing thousands of fully funded scholars each year, many of them bound for top institutions around the world. These students are high-caliber, motivated, and often looking for public policy, sustainability, education, health, or MBA programs that align with their career goals and government priorities.
In addition to early-career professionals, there’s growing interest from mid-career executives and sector specialists seeking a global edge through international credentials. If you’re looking to engage with serious postgraduate applicants, especially those with funding in place, our postgraduate fairs in Jakarta and Surabaya are the perfect setting. You’ll also meet key influencers from ministries, sponsor agencies, and employer networks.
Relationships Drive Recruitment
Success in Indonesia depends on more than just visibility. It’s about building real, long-term relationships, with high schools, universities, government partners, and scholarship bodies. Institutions that invest time in nurturing these partnerships see the rewards: not just in student numbers, but in brand trust, collaboration opportunities, and market insight.
Education fairs in Indonesia like the Higher Education Partnership Conference (HEPC) in Jakarta offer a valuable chance to connect with university leaders, agents, alumni, and policymakers. These platforms allow you to deepen engagement and position your institution as a serious, invested partner in Indonesia’s international education future.
The Takeaway
Indonesia isn’t just a rising market, it’s a strategic one. From early secondary through to funded PhDs, there are students here ready to study abroad, if you meet them where they are, speak their language (literally and culturally), and show them a clear, trusted path forward.
Education fairs in Indonesia are one of the most effective ways to do just that. Whether you’re building brand awareness, recruiting for the next intake, or laying the groundwork for future partnerships, showing up, online and in person, makes a difference.
