Pathways

Unlike Brazil, there are no entrance exams in other countries. Admission for international students is usually determined by academic performance, a good level of English, extracurricular activities, volunteer work, references, and good results on standardized tests (IELTS, TOEFL, SAT). In the United Kingdom and Australia, the Foundation program is mandatory for Brazilian students who have completed high school. It lasts an average of nine months, and it is possible to enroll on various dates throughout the year. In the US and Canada, Pathways is a great option for entering excellent universities, as it is a preparatory program with university credits. It lasts between six and twelve months, with enrollment dates throughout the year.

Postgraduate / Master's Degree

A master's degree abroad is an opportunity to deepen the knowledge acquired in your undergraduate degree in a specific area or to learn about an area of interest that is different from your undergraduate degree.

Undergraduate

Studying abroad provides personal development and can greatly contribute to a successful career. Graduating abroad offers several advantages and life opportunities, lasting between three and six years depending on the course. Some destinations offer internship and work opportunities during or after the program.
