What we can confirm

  • Listed in the WHO World Directory of Medical Schools (WDOMS ID F0002094) — you can verify this independently on wdoms.org rather than take any agent's word for it.
  • 49 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.

💬 Student Reviews

Real reviews from students.

Canal do Goa

Campus with various undergraduate and graduate programs. Tradition and common problems regarding resources for education from the federal government. Some buildings lack accessibility for wheelchair users or people with physical disabilities.

Higor Martins

The environment is beautiful, but unfortunately the university is very poorly maintained. It's absurd how this public space is being managed; it's disrespectful to the students and visitors alike, very sad.

Sabrina B.

The campus has banks, a convenience store, a university restaurant, a health clinic, and a viewpoint. The buildings are well signposted and the classrooms are okay. It could be better lit at night.

Guilherme Ambrosio de Azevedo

A university of extremely high quality!
Even with a low budget, it has a beautiful campus and highly qualified professionals offering various undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral programs. …

Great university, it's a shame the photovoltaic lights at the Mirante viewpoint aren't working.

The campus is very peaceful, with lots of trees; it just needs a slight improvement in the frequency of public transportation.

The buildings are far apart and the shortcuts are through the middle of nowhere, but other than that it's a great place.
