What we can confirm

  • Listed in the WHO World Directory of Medical Schools (WDOMS ID F0002662) — you can verify this independently on wdoms.org rather than take any agent's word for it.
  • 50 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.

💬 Student Reviews

Real reviews from students.

Rafael

Professors present the teaching plan but don't follow it; the evaluation method is implicit, as how can a student have over 70% efficiency in assessments and still have to take an exam? The Economics course coordinator is useless. Not to mention the strikes; if you want to invest in your future, don't waste your time at UEPG.

Gabi Müller

The courses offered are of extremely high quality; the real problem is the lack of security. At the Central campus, for example, there is no control over who enters the building, which is terrible. Problems arising from this and other egregious failures on the part of the institution frequently occur.

Otávio Augusto

Terrible service for those from other cities, they don't respond to emails or answer the phone, public service of 0 quality.
I have been trying to get service through (RESTEC Secretariat (42) 3220-370) for days and nothing. They let the phone ring, and ignore the email available for contact.

Cauã Silva

As a visitor, UEPG impresses with its spacious structure, welcoming atmosphere, and vibrant academic climate. The campus is beautiful, well-organized, and conveys a sense of movement and knowledge. It's a place that goes beyond the university and is part of the city's identity.

cristina passos

Regarding the PSS and the entrance exam...
We live next to the UEPG campus and other nearby schools...
But the classrooms lead to other distant neighborhoods, making transportation difficult, as buses are slow on Sundays and ride-sharing apps are very expensive.

Ana Riesemberg

It's impossible to call this university. The call doesn't go through. I've been calling daily for weeks, but it doesn't work. I just need a duplicate of my husband's diploma. Of course, they'll do everything they can to harm him, just like they did in 1991.

Caio Soares Sousa

Very good, but including Joice Hasselmann in the list of "notable alumni" is painful to watch... "notable"?? Seriously? At most, she's a minor celebrity from the rotten side of politics. It was embarrassing to see her name associated with the university...

Gabriel

An excellent university, a benchmark in teaching and research! It boasts a well-organized structure, qualified professors, and an academic environment that encourages learning and professional growth. Furthermore, the campus is spacious and …

Silvanira Ferreira de Lima

UEPG is very good, I'm proud that my daughters study at the institution. However, I think it's inconsiderate for students to stay up all night to arrive on time only to find there's no class. The professors were absent, plain and simple. …

Guinter Echelmeier

I only met wonderful people. Those I only knew halfway, please forgive me!! I thank my mentors and friends Flávio and Hauser from the bottom of my heart... To the others, my most sincere thanks, despite some differences regarding the …

Smelly Ellen

I study at UEPG, and I only have one complaint: the lack of professors in all courses. There's always a professor absent from some subject. The university is clean, well-maintained, with a wonderful cafeteria and good professors.

Camille Toczek

I know all about UEPG's reputation for being a good college, but when I came into contact with the online classes and subjects, I was very disappointed. It and its partnership with NUTEAD left much to be desired. …

Jorge Ribeiro Silva

Excellent, I can only express my gratitude. I am from the fourth graduating class (1977) of the Bachelor's Degree in Physical Education and Sports Technician program.

Carlos Eduardo Teixeira

On August 17, 2023, UEPG, the University of Ponta Grossa, proposed a land occupation meeting in memory of Ericson Jhon Duarte. The land occupation community!

Claudio Pereira

Good courses at a reputable university, entrance exam is competitive, so be prepared. I recommend it because it produces excellent professionals.

Vinicius Rosa

The environment offers quality education, but lacks better care in terms of safety and the quality/preservation of classrooms and equipment.

Rainier Plawiak

First time at UEPG, I got a little lost because there are no signs indicating the sectors and the place ends up becoming a labyrinth.

ines de Curitiba

I've been calling for days and no one answers. Emails, all ignored. Not even the ombudsman answers. Discouraging.

Nick Manduca

They leave a phone number and email address for contact and don't respond even with prayers!! TERRIBLE!!!

Ronan Silva

I live in Santana do Araguaia, PA, and I really want to go to college in this beautiful city.

Janete Machozeki

A top-tier university. Its medical program is among the top 5 in Brazil.

Hiro Ozawa

Central campus... Near the library you'll find ATMs for withdrawals. ;)
