This study used a qualitative approach and case study. The results showed that the students of PGSD, Forestry, Agrotechnology, Health Analysis, and Pharmacy Departments of Muhammadiyah University of Palangkaraya were confident to apply the values of Pancasila and students were less confident in developing English communication skills.
