Prouni 2026 second‑call scholarship deadline set for Aug 5‑14
The Ministry of Education announced that the results of the second call for the 2026 Programa Universidade para Todos (Prouni) were published on 5 August 2026. Candidates pre‑selected in this call must submit all required documentation to their private higher‑education institution between 5 August and 14 August 2026. Failure to do so will result in loss of the scholarship.
The current round offers 471 304 scholarships across 380 undergraduate courses at 879 private institutions. Of these, 219 725 are full‑tuition (integral) awards and 251 579 are partial (50 % discount) awards. A wait‑list will be opened for candidates not selected in either call; interested students must register on 26 and 27 August, with the wait‑list results to be released on 1 September. Institutions may accept documentation electronically or in person, and each must inform applicants of the specific procedures.
The deadline applies nationwide and affects thousands of Brazilian students seeking higher‑education financing.
