The first weekend of exams for the National High School Exam (Enem) takes place on November 8th, one month from now. A week later, on the 15th, the second day of tests takes place. Students who wish to intensify their focus on preparing for the Enem until then can participate in free classes in Fortaleza (see the list below).
The Enem score can be used, among other purposes, for candidates to obtain places in higher education institutions through the Unified Selection System (Sisu). In Ceará, four institutions participate in Sisu; they are:
Federal University of Ceará (UFC)
Federal Institute of Ceará (IFCE)
University of International Integration of Afro-Brazilian Lusofonia (Unilab)
Federal University of Cariri (UFCA)
Enem scores can also be used for candidates who wish to participate in the University for All Program (Prouni) and the Student Financing Fund (Fies).
Uece Vest
The State University of Ceará (Uece) will offer, through UeceVest, free classes open to the public in preparation for the Enem and the institution's own entrance exam.
Enem classes take place on the 7th and 14th of November. The class for the Uece entrance exam takes place on October 17th.
Registration for the Uece class will be held on the 8th, 9th, 14th and 15th of October at the UeceVest Secretariat.
Participation will be free for Uecevest students and, for the external public, a fee of R$ 10 will be charged. As part of a solidarity action, all interested parties - Uecevest students and external students - must donate 1kg of food upon registration.
Registration for Enem classes will soon be published on the Uece and Uecevest pages and social networks.
