Participation Rules and Operation of Quotas
To participate in the selection, it is mandatory to have completed High School by the enrollment date, whether in regular schools, through supplementary exams, Encceja, or certification via Enem.
The public notice follows the system of Affirmative Actions/Social Quotas, in accordance with Laws No. 12,711/2012 and No. 14,723/2023.
At least 50% of the slots in each course and shift are reserved for students who completed their High School entirely in Brazilian public schools, with subdivisions by income, color or ethnicity, and disability condition.
Within this group, candidates with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder can compete for slots designated for people with disabilities.
In addition to the quota vacancies for graduates of public schools, there is a specific reserve for graduates from IFRO itself and opportunities in open competition, available to all candidates who meet the educational requirements.
How the Selection Will Be Made Without Entrance Exam
The classification in PSU 2026/1 is done without the application of in-person or online tests.
IFRO uses the overall average of the grades or scores obtained in the subjects of Portuguese Language, Mathematics, Chemistry, Physics, Biology, History, and Geography, taken during High School.
The calculation of this average follows specific rules described in the public notice and in specific annexes, with guidelines for correctly filling out the application system.
For those who completed High School through exams such as Encceja or based on Enem scores, the document provides conversion guidelines to allow participation on equal terms.
The entire procedure for analysis and average generation is automated.
The candidate informs the grades according to the school report or certificates of completion, and the system performs the calculation.
Therefore, it is essential to record the data carefully and keep the documents that prove the declared information at hand, as they will be required at the time of enrollment.
Schedule for the Unified Selection Process 2026/1
The enrollment period runs from November 10 to December 14, 2025, ending at 11:59 PM on the last day.
The preliminary results are expected on December 15, 2025, after 6 PM.
Candidates may submit appeals on December 16 and 17, according to the guidelines in the public notice.
The final result will be published on December 19, also after 6 PM, followed by the first call for enrollment on January 5, 2026.
Keeping track of the official schedule is essential to avoid missing deadlines for appeals and document submission.
How to Register for Free Courses at IFRO
Enrollment is done exclusively online, through IFRO’s selection system.
Interested individuals must create or access their account, choose the campus and desired course, correctly input the grades from high school subjects according to the guidelines of the public notice, indicate whether they are competing in open competition or through quotas, and attach the requested documents in digital format.
Next, it is necessary to confirm the submission of the enrollment, as the process does not include a fee.
Monitoring should be done through the system itself, where the data validation and results will be published.
