One of the considerations for many people to study or choose a campus is the availability of scholarship programs. Studying with a scholarship program is often a dream for many people because the cost of studying is not cheap. Not to mention some prospective students have to migrate to a different city or country to study, having to deal with additional expenses. 

Therefore, finding and getting scholarships for undergraduate and postgraduate programs is a promising option for some people. In this article, we will explain several scholarship options available at private campuses in Tangerang.

Multimedia Nusantara University (UMN) is one of the private campuses in Tangerang that offers various scholarships for prospective students with diverse backgrounds.
