To become a regularly enrolled student in an undergraduate course at UFRGS, the international student needs to:

• Fill in the Application form. After filling in the form, please send it to incoming@relinter.ufrgs.br along with the following documents:
• Academic Transcripts:  inventory supplied by the student’s host institution, containing the courses taken, the respective grades and credit hours, duly signed.
• Copy of the passport: a clear copy, with the number of the document and photograph.
• Study Plan: a list of the courses the student would like to take at UFRGS. This list must be signed by the student’s home institution. The courses offered by UFRGS can be found in the link Atividades de Ensino. The Study Plan can be found on the second page of the Formulário de Candidatura de Aluno Visitante (Application Form), and is prone to alterations depending on the approval of the tutor.
• Description of disciplines completed: this document should present a brief description, in Portuguese, of all disciplines you passed at your university. This document does not have to be official; you may informally make a report of the disciplines.

These documents should be sent by e-mail in only one PDF file to incoming@relinter.ufrgs.br 

After we receive the necessary documents and forms, the requests will be assessed. Afterwards, a Letter of Acceptance will be sent by mail to those students who were accepted at UFRGS. The Letter of Acceptance is an official document that testifies that you are allowed to study at UFRGS, and it is a requested document for obtaining your Brazilian Student Visa (Temporary Visa IV).
