The selection process will be exclusively based on the analysis of the candidate’s school record, without an exam.

The grades in Portuguese and Mathematics from the final years of elementary school (for integrated courses) or high school (for subsequent courses) will be considered.

The system will compute a simple arithmetic average between the two grades presented, and candidates will be ranked according to the score obtained. In case of a tie, those with higher age will have priority.

IFPE maintains its policy of inclusion and social equity. Of the total slots, 60% are reserved for candidates from public schools, following Law No. 12.711/2012 (Quota Law).

Within this group, there is specific reserve for low-income students, blacks, browns, indigenous, quilombolas and people with disabilities (PwD).

Furthermore, courses with an agricultural profile maintain 25% additional slots for candidates from rural areas, such as family farmers, fishermen, shellfish gatherers, and members of rural communities.

These actions reinforce the role of the federal institute as an agent of social transformation.
