OAB 48th Unified Bar Exam registration opens in Brazil

Registration for the 48th Unified Bar Exam (OAB) begins this Monday, September 28, through October 5. Organized by the Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV), the exam is a mandatory requirement for obtaining a professional license for law graduates and students in their final periods of study.

Interested candidates must register online via the FGV website. The registration fee is R$ 350.00, with requests for fee exemptions also available until October 5. The first phase of the objective exam is scheduled for January 10, 2027, with the final results expected on April 7, 2027.

In related academic news, the Faculdade de Direito de Vitória (FDV) has achieved a significant milestone, rising from 12th to 5th place in the national ranking for OAB approval rates during the 46th Exam. The institution attributes this success to its structural curriculum and faculty composed of masters and doctors, rather than specific preparatory courses.
