Abstract

This study aims to determine students' level of understanding and interest in the right to study three semesters outside the study program within the Independent Learning Campus policy framework. The research was conducted at the Chinese Language Education Program of Universitas Universal. Determination of the sample is done by purposive sampling. The research respondents were 62 students of the class of 2020. The data collection instrument was in the form of a questionnaire. Questionnaire data were analyzed descriptively quantitatively. Students' understanding of the basic policy of the right to study outside the study program is in a good category. 87.7% of students can understand the policy of the right to study outside the study program in the good and very good categories. 66% of students already know about the right to study outside the study program, 78% get information from campus socialization. The rest comes from mass media or social media, Kemdikbudristek, and campus friends. Many students still do not understand the number of semesters and credits recognized in learning activities outside the study program. Students were most interested in student exchange activities (71.0%), while the least interesting activities were village building activities/thematic actual work (25.8%).
