<![CDATA[Universities' development hinges significantly on student admissions, necessitating accurate predictions for effective planning. This study applies the Monte Carlo simulation method to forecast new student arrivals at the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences (FMIPA) at Universitas Negeri Medan (UNIMED). Utilizing data from 2021 to 2023 sourced from the PDDikti website, the research employs PHP programming for implementation. The Monte Carlo algorithm's numerical prowess ensures precise statistical data simulation, comprising data collection, probabilistic distribution computations, cumulative distribution determinations, random number generation, and simulation analyses. Simulation results for 2022, 2023, and 2024 exhibit consistent trends, projecting an average of 860 to 930 new students per program. This methodology surpasses manual estimations, offering robust insights for university resource allocation and strategic management. Despite its effectiveness, study limitations, such as model assumptions, warrant continuous validation with actual data. This research advances predictive modeling in higher education, providing a foundation for future enhancements and comprehensive prediction integrations.]]>
