As a mobility student:
International student mobility is viable in two specific cases. The first one is through an existing partnership (Cooperation Agreement) between the home university and UFRN. The second one is when there is the need to create a partnership between your home university and UFRN, which is only possible when your university contacts UFRN showing interest in the Cooperation Agreement.
Required documents to apply for academic mobility: 1- Application Form; 2- School Records; 3-Letter of Intent; 4- Letter of Referral from Home University; 5- Copy of Passport.
The required documents must be sent to: mobilidade@sri.ufrn.br

Admission through ENEM
The National High School Examination (ENEM) was created by the Ministry of Education and Culture (MEC) to evaluate the level of learning of the students who finished high school in Brazil. ENEM’s grade is used in the selection process of the public universities in Brazil, such as UFRN, through SISU – Unified Selection System. Among the requirements to attend a Brazilian university, the international student needs to revalidate their certificate of high school in the state secretariats of education. However, this document is only requested at the time of the student's enrollment at the university after the approval. More information: http://enem.inep.gov.br/
- participation in Bilateral Programs The most common way for international students to get a chance to study with us without taking the traditional vestibular or the ENEM [National High School Exam] is through the Exchange Program for Undergraduate Students (PEC-G).
