Brazilian university admission and vacancy processes

Overview

Brazilian universities continue to advance admission processes for the 2026 and 2027 cycles. For the 2027 cycle, the State University of Bahia (Uneb) is offering between 4,327 and 5,497 undergraduate vacancies, with registration scheduled from September 15 to October 7 and exams set for December 13–14. Unicerrado has announced 60 “medicine vacancies” with exams on November 22, 2026. The Universidade Estadual de Góis (UEG) is offering 4,300 vacancies across 35 courses, with registration closing September 21 and exams on October 18.

In Pará, the University of the State of Pará (UEPA) opened registration for its PROSEL 2027 process on September 10, offering 3,970 in-person undergraduate vacancies. Notably, UEPA will use Enem 2026 scores for selection rather than a university-administered exam. Specific selection processes were also announced for Music and Letras-Libras degrees.

Exam activity peaked in mid-October. On October 18, Unicamp conducted its first phase, featuring 72 questions on topics including artificial intelligence and the military dictatorship. The exam saw 58,431 candidates compete for 2,523 spots with a record-low absenteeism rate of 6.38%. On the same day, the Universidade Estadual de Londrina (UEL) held its exam, reporting its highest applicant numbers in five years despite a 14.28% absenteeism rate. Meanwhile, the Universidade Estadual do Ceará (UECE) released its first-phase exam booklet.

Additional 2027 registration deadlines include Unesp, which closes on October 20 for 5,850 vacancies, and Unisc in Rio Grande do Sul, which accepts applications through November 30. In the graduate sector, Acre holds the third-highest proportion of research scholarship recipients in Brazil at 61%.

Medical education remains a focal point, with Unespar and UniEVÂNGÉLICA managing significant application volumes and upcoming course openings. Vocational training continues through various regional institutes.
