        "summary": "The East Java Provincial Education Office has launched a two-day simulation of the 2026 Student Admission System (SPMB) to assist prospective students and parents in navigating the online registration process. The initiative aims to prevent errors during the selection process and clarify the importance of academic grades in the domicile-based admission track.",
        "content": "<p>The East Java Provincial Education Office (Dindik Jatim) has\nofficially organised a simulation for the 2026 Student Admission System\n(SPMB) registration, held on Monday (8\/6) and Tuesday (9\/6). The\nsimulation is designed to help prospective students understand the\nimplementation flow of the 2026 East Java SPMB registration.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have prepared this simulation to provide an opportunity for\nprospective students or parents to better understand the online\nregistration mechanism and to avoid errors during the selection\nprocess,\u201d said the Head of the East Java Education Office, Aries Agung\nPaewai, in Surabaya on Monday (8\/6).<\/p>\n<p>In accordance with the schedule established by the East Java\nEducation Office, the 2026 SPMB registration period will commence on\nThursday (11\/6). Applicants are encouraged to utilise these two days to\nconduct simulations.<\/p>\n<p>According to Aries, the SPMB simulation was prepared while the\ncurrent stage of the process is still in the PIN collection phase, which\ncontinues until 9 June. Obtaining a PIN is a primary requirement for\nprospective students wishing to register for state Senior High Schools\n(SMA) and Vocational High Schools (SMK) in East Java.<\/p>\n<p>Aries explained that after entering data online via the SPMB Jatim\nwebsite, prospective students must undergo data verification and\nvalidation at a school recommended by the system. Once this process is\ncomplete, the PIN can be downloaded to facilitate the registration\nprocess.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to reminding the public about the importance of\ncollecting the PIN, Aries also urged the community to understand the\nregulations for each admission track, particularly the SMA domicile\ntrack, which has opened earlier this year compared to previous\nyears.<\/p>\n<p>He noted that many members of the public still mistakenly believe\nthat the domicile track is determined solely by the proximity of the\nhome to the school. In reality, the selection process continues to\nprioritise academic grades, with domicile acting as a secondary\nconsideration.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are still members of the public who believe the SMA domicile\ntrack is based only on the distance of the house from the school.\nHowever, academic grades are prioritised first, followed by domicile,\u201d\nhe said.<\/p>",
