What we can confirm

  • Listed in the WHO World Directory of Medical Schools (WDOMS ID F0004760) — you can verify this independently on wdoms.org rather than take any agent's word for it.
  • 56 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.

João Paulo Alves

The University of Latin American Integration is a public higher education institution managed by Brazil, Paraguay, and Argentina. The University's main focus is on humanities courses geared towards the Latin American reality and future engineering courses such as renewable energy.

Antonio Carvalho Neto

I went to visit to learn about the different areas and curricula, and it seemed to me that, except for strictly specialized courses like Medicine and Engineering, for example, the content of courses in the Humanities is driven by an ideological foundation.

Silvio Natal

A Workers' Party (PT) fantasy to promote defunct Bolivarianism and siphon off meager taxpayer resources by teaching totally bizarre "subjects" (quotation marks necessary) with a very clear ideological bias. Yet another milestone in Lula's stupidity.

Kai

I was a Unila student and I love the project and everything it entails. Unfortunately, there's still a lot of work to be done on the teaching and curriculum front, and that was one of the reasons I didn't continue. However, I have wonderful …

Juan Gabriel

UNILA is an excellent university. The funniest thing I noticed while interacting with the students is that there are many rich people who pretend to be poor ?, it almost seems like a competition to see who owns the poorest iPhone. But, in …

René Dubois Júnior

Money well spent from the Mercosur Structural Convergence Fund. It's a shame that it will be attacked and dismantled by the Temer government, which has adopted the government program defeated at the polls, contrary to regional integration.

Bruno D

You open a selection process for diploma reuse with a very short deadline for submitting documents. I had 4 days to send the syllabus for my first course, and the university where I studied asked for 10 days. From what I've seen, most …

Lívia Brito

A public, free, and excellent university! For Brazilians to enter, it is necessary to take the ENEM exam, and for non-Brazilians, through the international selection process that begins in May (of the year prior to the start of classes).

edwin montes neyra

I believe it's a wonderful project that will become a reality as events unfold, but it would be a grave mistake to politicize the university because this would create division. Our America needs scientifically skilled people who can …

josue Ticiani

It's a young, up-and-coming/excellent university that has the potential to become even better than it already is and consolidate itself within its initial proposal, and it will become even better with the completion of the campus!

Troian Emanuelle

For those who have been there and KNOW the place, can people from outside the area go there to borrow books? Like, someone in high school, can I get a library card or something to borrow books? …

Fábio Alexandre da Silva

A public, free, secular university with high-quality education and international standing, not to mention that it opens doors for integration into the Latin American context.

Matias Mendieta Duarte

UNILA is characterized by a unique experience centered on Education, Revolution, and Decoloniality.
A symbol of integration that deserves greater attention and development.

Lilian Carneiro

An excellent university! It offers many opportunities in Foz do Iguaçu in various aspects, generating job opportunities in diverse professional areas.

Érico Massoli

I brought federal higher education to Foz, adding quality to teaching, research, and outreach! Only through education will Brazil move forward!

Israel vogel rieger Ida

The best university in Brazil! It has its problems, but it still fulfills its role as a federal university with quality education!

Francisco Rivera

An excellent university, a center of knowledge, and also a bilingual university, offering Latin American Spanish and Portuguese.

Patrick Marcelino da Silva

Just an abandoned building, the future headquarters of Unila has stopped in time, a shame and yet another national disgrace.

Francielle Lemes

The building is not owned by the school, and the fact that there are no buses at specific class times doesn't help.

Fábio Dozza

An important step towards integration among Latin American countries, and perhaps even towards a world state.

Samuel Pinheiro

Beautiful! We really need to invest in education, especially public and high-quality education.

Vinícius Magalhães

Beautiful embryonic project! We must fight hard to ensure its essence continues and progresses.

Letícia Luiza Santana

Fantastic, wonderful university, I'm proud to say I'm a Unile student ??????????

Lucía Fonseca

A place where I have met incredible people, grateful to be part of this project.

Andrea Rodriguez

It's closed now. Nobody is near UNILA. But the security personnel helped a lot.

Christiano Castellano

Free, quality education.

More than a "project," UNILA is now a reality. …

Rosely Thomé

A university that opens its doors to the world! It goes beyond borders.

Kamila Karla Ribeiro

Foreigners have more opportunities and privileges than Brazilians.

WISA IMAGE INC (Valex)

According to my research, it is the university of opportunities.

Nianeltha Saint louis

How can I get a UNILA international scholarship please?

Dayy Carolina

Rector's office and administrative building of UNILA.

elias Piffer

Excellent professional to improve our future ? …

It's a university. Amazing and good service.

Prince MCkenley

The heart of young people in Latin America?
