Before you apply: five checks for this college

  1. Confirm the World Directory entry F0001129 yourself at wdoms.org; the entry describes the school as it reported itself, not its recognition anywhere.

What we can confirm

  • Listed in the WHO World Directory of Medical Schools (WDOMS ID F0001129) — you can verify this independently on wdoms.org rather than take any agent's word for it.
  • 103 rated student reviews on file here, averaging 4.7★ — 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.

Fabio Stasiak Vendramin

This University follows the mission of educating citizens. I am very grateful to all who have shared their knowledge in pursuit of a good education, both to the regular students and to the extension courses offered by all its collaborators. I extend my gratitude to everyone involved in the cause of its founding and its maintenance.

Francisco Ferreira

I would like to express my indignation because, you see, it's a huge lack of respect for the patients and also for their care. My mother-in-law had surgery, and someone was supposed to stay with her, but the person who was supposed to stay with her became ill, and I couldn't go with her to leave the hospital. It's very complicated.

*Hello, I have searched for this university but I am not sure if it has different requirements for Arab students. Does it offer scholarships? Do they provide financial aid or is it free? What are the admission rates? If possible, please send me the admission requirements. I really want to join this university.

Bete Dias

Excellent space for a walk or a picnic in the peace square on weekends. Well-behaved dogs are also welcome. The observatory allows you to observe the sky and the University in 360 degrees. There is a campus living service that offers some security to visitors. I advise against night walks and strolls.

Amanda Santos

I'm receiving my prenatal care through CAISM and I can say they are excellent, very dedicated and helpful. You can't complain about the wait time because the demand is very high and there are many people to attend to, but you can be sure that if you need them, you're in the best place.

Regina Célia

When I went for the first time I felt lost, but then I gradually found my way around. Without exaggeration, it's wonderful. I was enchanted by the medical care; I'm speechless. I've never seen so many people at a university. I recommend Unicamp to everyone without hesitation. ????

Cristina Araos

It's quite large, but there are some very neglected areas around the humanities buildings, to the point that it's scary to enter, and I think the non-main entrances should be better signposted so people know they're entering a university, which is a renowned one, by the way.

Nelsom Inacio

The first time I needed hospital care, I received excellent service. And after the surgery, the nursing and medical staff who treated me during my stay at UNICAMP were outstanding. Congratulations to the entire medical team who cared for me. My sincerest thanks to everyone.

Izabel Costa Machado

Dr. Silvia and Dr. Felipe, yesterday and today, November 22nd and 23rd, at the ER/ER of the HC, I want to thank you for all the attention you gave my mother. The world needs this! Professionals like you. Congratulations!!! My thanks also to the nursing staff.

Rafael de Almeida

I am a student in the Mathematics degree program. The university in general is fantastic, but there is a lot of neglect towards evening courses. The vast majority of activities are during business hours, excluding everyone who needs to work during the day.

Romualdo da Silva

The structure and service are very good, despite the huge number of people who come seeking care every day, they really deserve praise. My sincere thanks and I recommend them, as I only spoke with polite and attentive staff, especially with …

The complaint is about the high-cost pharmacy, which hasn't changed its medication pick-up procedures for years. People (usually elderly or sick) are left out in the open, exposed to rain or sun, without shelter or comfortable facilities. …

Horrible place, terrible service. I went there dying of shortness of breath, feverish, they didn't give me any medicine or tests, they just measured my blood pressure and sent me home because there was nothing wrong. I'm outraged. I don't …

Alessandra Lepri

The entire university and the district where it's located has a different vibe from the rest of the metropolitan area. People are much more conscious and altruistic, probably due to the collective culture and technology. I love this place!!

Natália Misse

Terrible experience. My mother had a heart attack and was taken there. She received excellent care in the emergency room, but after she went to the ICU, it was all downhill... she showed up with several scratch marks even though she had …

Admin. Social Media

Unfortunately, I had a terrible experience with a social consultant at Unicamp who was the most xenophobic, invasive, and rude person I have ever met in my life. And on top of all that, there was an unequal lack of ethics where, in one …

This place was a blessing in my life. My daughter, at 6 months old, started having seizures, some resulting in cardiac arrest. Until then, she had no diagnosis. Going to the emergency rooms in my city, they said it was "normal," but I …

UNICAMP in Barão Geraldo is frequently cited in my professional network as a phenomenal beacon of scientific vanguard, where the rigorous pursuit of knowledge is perfectly matched by a vibrant, human-centric campus culture. From many …

sérjao rogues

The hospital is good, but my complaint is about the businesses outside. You pay a lot for food, and if you need to use the restroom, there isn't one, or it's broken. Most of the time, they don't want customers to use it. Sad...

Thiago Pignatti de Freitas

It's quite well-organized, but lacks a bit of infrastructure, especially regarding accessibility. The Saturnino Restaurant has a vegan menu. It needs more investment and closer attention from the state government.

Pedro Nakasu

I've had an incredible experience as undergraduate Chemistry student at UNICAMP! I strongly recommend this institution for any type of academic students and researchers outside Brazil.

This university was like a mother to me. I came from the countryside, studied with the best professors and in the best facilities. I'm proud to have studied there.

Renato Ishida

It's a city apart in Campinas; those who manage to get in there have their professional careers more on track. It's worth the effort for parents and students.

Gandhi Esperança

Unicamp is the best university in Latin America and has a super charming and pleasant campus for walks in the late afternoons, holidays and weekends.

Wilson Barbosa

Medical care, exams, and consultations were all very good, but the bathrooms are a disgrace – broken toilets, bad smell, and no hygiene whatsoever.

Adriele Silva

The place has few staff members, the service structure is somewhat precarious, and despite this, the waiting time is not very long and is reasonable.

Victor Vale

I drove by the Sunday before last to see what it was like and I didn't regret it. Large, very beautiful campus. One day, I still want to study there.

Sarani Abedin
