Fully funded Scholarships in Brazil for International Students in 2024

As per my recent research on scholarships opportunities available in Brazilian universities are quite high which support international students with their higher education and i am going to discuss some of those opportunities here:

#1 PAEC OAS-GCUB Scholarships in Brazil

OAS (The Organization of American States) Partnerships Program for Education and Training (PAEC OAS-GCUB) supports students of member states of OAS by providing them with scholarships. Master’s and Doctorate students may apply for these scholarships to study in Brazil. By obtaining the scholarships, foreign students get tuition fees exemption, monthly grants, a contribution to settlement expenses, access to Portuguese lessons, and access to other university facilities.

Plus, at the application stage, there is no requirement for proficiency in Portuguese. Students can get these scholarships for selected programs at specific universities. To get further information, visit the website of OAS.

#2 Brazilian Government Exchange Program 2023

This is a program for undergraduate and postgraduate students from specific developing countries to pursue their higher education in Brazil. Students who have attended high school in a country other than Brazil are eligible for the scholarship. The tuition fee of the Brazilian university where the student is studying is covered under the program. However, the student has to bear all other expenses including international travel, accommodation, and living expenses.

Hence, one of the criteria for eligibility is the ability to afford living expenses in Brazil. Also, students have to sit for the Certificate of Proficiency in Portuguese for Foreigners in order to get the scholarship.  Many courses at universities in Brazil are included in this program. So, get information and apply through the Educational Themes Division of the Government of Brazil.

#3 FAPESP Scholarships

FAPESP provides two types of scholarships namely educational scholarships and research scholarships. Educational scholarships are intended to support students enrolled in Masters Programs or Doctoral Programs. On the other hand research scholarships are intended to financially support students with a post-doctoral degree and these scholarships are intended to promote education and research in Brazil also they are provided for a limited time after which they can be renewed.

Both scholarships are provided at different reputed higher educational institutions in Brazil and for example, there is a FAPESP postdoctoral program at the University of Sao Paulo, Brazil so if you want to learn more about these scholarships, you can contact the Brazilian university you want to take admission in or go to the website of FAPESP whereas FAPESP website keeps on updating new programs and research projects for which scholarship is available.

Within Brazil, students of Masters and Doctorate programs are provided scholarships. Masters scholarships are provided for 24 months in the form of monthly payments and doctoral scholarships are provided for up to 48 months. Monthly payments are made to these scholarships also.
