The treatment module is directed to the approach of humanity universal, by awakening the negative effect of petty minded of differences that have been going on. This research uses a parallel method of transformational mixed design (participation action research). Quantitative approach using experimental field designs pre-post two groups. Consisting of two studies, the first study of 28 USU students and a second study of 33 USU students; which is divided into treatment groups and control groups. Simultaneously with the treatments carried out Focus Group Discussions were conducted at each end to the session for the trial group. Training consists of three sessions held within two days for each study. The results show significant effectiveness of the training both in study one and in study two. As a consequence of the transformational method, it is discussed the possibility of using the treatment module for the wider participants in admission of fresh students. The training module needed to be addressed for other students, tested on student admission's situation and follow up after first-semester.
