What we can confirm

  • Listed in the WHO World Directory of Medical Schools (WDOMS ID F0005533) — you can verify this independently on wdoms.org rather than take any agent's word for it.
  • 108 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.

Elisabete Gomes Maia

A public university, with qualified professionals and an excellent structure!! Congratulations to the governments of 2004 to 2014, who built and created 39 university courses, with approximately 10,000 students. Currently, it is going through budget cuts from 2019 to 2021, unfortunately putting education at risk.

Nilgleane Costa

An excellent university, it has many great opportunities and good support for students from other states. If you're afraid to choose a degree in a state other than your own, I recommend Ufersa. I was a student there and I can speak from experience, I even miss it!

maxsuel gomes

A great federal university in the semi-arid region, known for its large projects, a pleasant and collaborative environment for students and teachers. Come to UFERSA and be recognized as the number one institution in Mossoró and the surrounding area.

Bruno Menezes

The importance of this university to the region is unparalleled, being the largest intellectual center in western Rio Grande do Norte, with a structure befitting a federal university. It plays a fundamental role in the development of the …

Luis Gustavo Oliveira s.

The area is open not only to students, but it's also one of the best places in the city to exercise, walk the dog, not to mention the library, accessible to everyone, with a very good collection.

Jeiel Lira

Excellent college, with various outdoor spaces, a convenience store and restaurant, well-structured classrooms, and a very pleasant library. A good place to study, spend time, and play sports.

Ricardo Ramos

Located on the BR highway without a pedestrian overpass that would allow students to travel safely, risking accidents, access to the city center/UFERSA is complicated and time-consuming.

Cayro Deodato

One of the best higher education institutions in the Northeast, it offers master's and doctoral programs and currently has the best undergraduate law program in Brazil.

Josselina Gabriel

A great college, spacious classrooms all with air conditioning, a vast library with diverse books on various subjects that help students prepare, and a nice green area.

cesar

Very good university, very good teaching, extremely well-regarded in the region. However, some aspects, especially communication, leave something to be desired.

Gianote santos

They should organize the meal lines better to make it faster; otherwise, you give up on having lunch, it's not efficient. It needs a lot of improvement.

Marcos

Very good in many ways. If it were possible to stop "being rural," given that it doesn't lack anything, I believe it would add even more value.

Wesley Monteiro

The university is quite large, with two entrances, east and west sides. The university restaurant is very spacious and the food is delicious.
