The only student fair in Brazil to be supported by Capes

During the event, students can engage in one on one sessions, discussing program options and scholarship possibilities. Exhibitors will get the opportunity to give presentations about their school (to be booked in advance). This international student fair in is supported by CAPES Science without borders and by major national education bodies such as Education USA, Campus France, DAAD, Nuffic, Universidad.es and is particularly suitable for institutions participating in the Brazilian “Science without Borders” program.
High school visits Brazil
To bolster your recruitment efforts, we are taking a limited number of accredited institutions to visit leading private Brazilian international schools in Sao Paulo, Brasilia and Rio de Janeiro. These exclusive schools have been carefully selected for their quality curriculum and their enthusiasm to proactively prepare their students for studying abroad. At each school, you will participate in an on-campus fair that will directly connect you with senior students, parents and high school counsellors.
Brazil’s student recruitment market
- The demand for quality university education in Brazil is far greater that the supply. The best chances of furthering education are more likely to be found abroad.
- Brazil is known for its quality secondary and tertiary education. 6,3% of GDP is spent on education. This is well above the OECD average.
- Brazilian students are highly mobile. Studying abroad and traveling are part of the culture. Many Brazilians have a second (mostly European) passport.
- The Brazilian government has set up a formidable scholarship program (PEC-G) that has already enabled over 10,000 students to study abroad (degree seeking and exchange)
