What we can confirm

  • Listed in the WHO World Directory of Medical Schools (WDOMS ID F0000251) — you can verify this independently on wdoms.org rather than take any agent's word for it.
  • 110 rated student reviews on file here, averaging 4.6★ — read the full text below before deciding.

Verify before you pay anyone

  • Recognition and licensing rules change over time. Re-check the current NMC-eligible colleges list and this country's regulations for Brazil yourself before paying anything.
  • Never pay an agent or "seat reservation" fee in cash, or before you have a signed offer letter directly from the university.
  • A guaranteed admission, a discounted "management quota" seat, or pressure to decide within 24 hours are classic pressure tactics — slow down and verify independently.
  • Confirm the medium of instruction, hostel/food costs, and total multi-year fee in writing from the university itself, not only from an agent's brochure.

Real reviews from students.

Kaua victor

One of the best universities in Brazil, it has affordable lunch options for students, and also provides student housing. A leading university in various fields of study, it offers more than 60 different courses. The location is clean, spacious, with a huge library, easy access, and overall the infrastructure is very good.

Rafael Moreira

This university is highly sought after by students who come from various parts of the state and even from other states to study here; courses such as history and law are nationally renowned. It has a good infrastructure and is close to the city of Aracaju, a small city that welcomes university students.

Lucas Fernando

Excellent campus, with a diverse range of courses and a diverse student body. Classrooms have air conditioning, the university restaurant is reasonable, despite the enormous queues, and the library, although relatively small compared to the size of the University, has a good collection.

Filipe de Jesus

What words could be used to describe so well a huge and one of the best (if not the best) public educational institutions in the state of Sergipe? The population is grateful for the great accolades that UFS has brought to our state due to its excellent standard of education.

Lucelia Sedrez

Good afternoon! I would like to know the phone number for UFS (Federal University of Sergipe) because all the numbers I call are unreachable. I would also like more information about the Literature course for the community. Thank you very much.

Pal Kunkanen

A beautiful, relatively well-maintained campus, despite the rather sandy soil, which doesn't lend itself well to landscaping. All the buildings are low and almost free of graffiti, which is unusual for Brazilian universities. Liberty Square …

Diego Gama

I am enrolled in a physics course, but I don't want to take it and want to go to IFS where I will study something closer to my work, since I am a software developer and I passed the entrance exam for Information Systems. I want to withdraw …

Alysson Gomes

The place is huge, a very diverse environment, although some parts are vandalized (to accommodate the ideologies of some students). I can't comment on the administration, I don't have any knowledge of it. However, I would like to highlight …

Davi Pires

The place is very spacious, but there's a lot of neglect regarding lighting at night, and security is practically nonexistent. A friend of mine almost suffered an attempted rape. Take better care of your students, especially the women, who …

Arrependa-se ou Morrera

The university is great: many highly rated courses, excellent professors, spacious, a huge central library, a university restaurant, student housing, various support services, well-wooded areas, and many places to discover. However, many …

Castion

It's a very spacious place with many things to discover, it has an integrated bank branch (Banco do Brasil), a leisure area, and air-conditioned rooms (but not all of them). The problem is the food area, which has few snack bars and they …

The university is gorgeous! It remains beautiful even without good infrastructure! Whoever planned it deserves the entire state of Tocantins! The only flaw is that it has some terrible courses (everyone knows which ones they are) and the …

Phillipe Rosário

It has received a lot of investment in recent years. Many renovations have taken place. Student capacity has been expanded, the number of courses has increased, and the buildings' infrastructure has improved – even the classrooms have …

Kleber Wagner

Excellent university, outstanding faculty. My only reservations are about the administration, the rector's office, and the lack of infrastructure in some places, such as the CCBS (Center for Biological and Social Sciences). But even so, …

Ivan Henssen

The university is incredible, with a very good faculty and a high diversity of students, demonstrating the purpose that education should have: inclusion. However, security is weak, and it shouldn't be ignored that the state is facing a …

Jeane Lins Passos

The landscaping needs improvement, and the issue of stray cats on campus needs addressing. It also needs a good paint job, some building renovations, and most importantly, signage. There's no signage; people get lost inside. It needs a …

Jacobina

A university with a diverse range of courses. The teaching is high quality, the professors have their own particularities in their teaching practice, but they are qualified professionals! However, there is much room for improvement in …

Sonia de Avila Santos

I really like UFS; it has quality education, well-prepared professors, a pleasant environment with lots of trees, well-equipped classrooms, many departments to meet the needs of students, and an administrative staff always ready to help.

Thiago

A great university! I was there recently as a visitor with my 9th grade classmates, and my experience was fantastic. I gained a lot of knowledge from that place and even got that extra "motivation" to become a university student hahaha.

Pedro

Good university, but it falls short in maintenance and infrastructure; some classrooms have broken air conditioning. The professors are good; some genuinely strive to teach, while others prefer to fail a large portion of the class.

Yan Vitor

Great place, spacious, wooded and accessible environment. In addition to excellent courses that focus on the pillars of teaching, research and outreach, with top marks from the Ministry of Education. Public, free and high-quality.

Douglas Hivens

The campus is large and has beautiful places with a really nice square. Sometimes it gets neglected. The classrooms vary because of the buildings, some are old with small rooms and others are newer with spacious rooms. …

Geyse Rezende

Very spacious area with lots of green space! Giant, covered, and tree-lined parking lot too.
Water and restrooms in all areas! Air-conditioned rooms, snack bars, bank... The campus animals add a very special touch!

Fernandes Bernardo Rocha Junior

It's a very good place to study, given the excellent building infrastructure and highly qualified professors, but now there are a lot of cats running loose around the institution, which people abandon there.

Deehelise Carvalho

Spacious area with lots of greenery. The building needs some renovations and painting. Teachers have excellent resumes; some are negligent towards the students, while others take their work very seriously.

loud davi

Is there something wrong with the institution's website? It's been giving an error and I haven't been able to access it since Wednesday, February 3rd, 2021. Is there an estimated time for it to be fixed?

Brendah Ferreira

The Federal University of Sergipe is ranked 3rd best and first in the Brazilian Northeast according to the Times Higher Education World University Ranking in 2022. I love UFS, a universe for all people.

Hunter Honda

Good university, excellent and highly qualified professors. The main point to highlight is the security aspect! Anyone can access the facilities, which creates a certain feeling of insecurity. …

Douglas Chagas

Air-conditioned rooms, qualified professionals, welcoming people, and a cafeteria with affordable prices, but there is a lack of internal signage and maintenance of restrooms and water fountains.

José Matheus

It's a pleasant, tree-lined place, located in a good part of town, with excellent professionals. It has a large parking lot with capacity for many cars, and the restaurant itself is really cool.

Bruno de Abreu Oliveira

The Federal University of Sergipe plays a fundamental role in the State. Teaching, Research and Extension make the university develop and, at the same time, develop the local community. …

Luan Correia

UFS is one of the best public universities in the country, but the Wi-Fi signal is very poor and needs improvement. I hope the new rector of UFS will resolve this as quickly as possible.

Luís Fabiano

Only two joys: entering and leaving! Terrible structure, uncommitted teachers who teach nothing and are frequently absent! And that's without even mentioning those of dubious character!

Leonardo P. Santos

A renowned local university, offering a huge range of courses in diverse fields of knowledge. Unfortunately, the facilities are terrible, among other numerous negative aspects.

Elizania Rodrigues

How can I find out about my son's situation? He's 22 years old and I can't know anything just because he's an adult but doesn't work and depends on his parents. What can I do?

Pedro Neto

Well, I study at the application school...
The teaching is great, the teachers are qualified and prepared, and as for the food, it's healthy and delicious ? …

Luciano Lima

The transformations that have occurred in the last 5-6 years have brought more departments and classrooms. However, the high rate of vegetation loss is a shame.

Arthur Carvalho

A place beyond words, the academic environment is very productive. Although there is a lack of infrastructure, the students and teachers are highly committed.

GalSan

Is it near Aracaju? Can someone tell me? Some say that UFS is inside the city of São Cristovão, others say it's outside the city, almost near Aracaju.

????

Roberto Oliveira da Silva

It's a wonderful place with fresh air, a source of knowledge, where the best are sanctified, where young people see the opportunity to have a bright future.

Ismael bezerra

The basic facilities (bathrooms and classrooms) are very good; I don't know about the departments and laboratories, the physics lab seemed small to me.

Agência NDI

A place where knowledge is palpable. I studied at this university and witnessed the dedication of the administration department in providing the best.

Lucas Teles

It's not quite 5 stars yet because there's a lot of room for improvement within the education system and other areas, but it's on the right track...

Ytalo Santos Aragão

It used to be better. The budget cuts are very visible.
I hope that in the next government, investments in education and science will grow again.

Reynaldo Fonseca Fonseca

A well-rounded university, in addition to having a large academic infrastructure, also has several parking lots, as well as a large green area.

Fabiana Lima

It's impossible not to love UFS. It's a shame that the government doesn't support this wonderful institution that trains so many professionals.

Gessica Gois

It's a pleasant, well-ventilated place with parking, a covered area for studying, a large bicycle, snack bars, and a Banco do Brasil branch.

Noelha Rosa

It's a beautiful and large place, I confess that I prefer to visit it during the day; at night it's a bit quiet and strange.
