Sisu 2026 Registration Opens With Record 274,800 Seats and New Best‑of‑Three Enem Rule

The system now automatically selects each applicant’s strongest Enem result from 2023 to 2025, shifting competitiveness as cutoffs update daily until results post on January 29.

Overview

  • Applications run January 19–23 exclusively via the Portal Único, requiring a gov.br login and allowing candidates to list up to two course choices.
  • This is the largest edition to date, offering about 274,800 places across 7,388 courses in 136 public institutions nationwide.
  • Under the new policy, Sisu computes the best weighted average per course from Enem 2023, 2024 or 2025, and past treineiro scores or a zero in the essay are not valid.
  • The regular call is due January 29, waitlist confirmations run January 29 to February 2, and institutional enrollment begins from February 2 with a single annual application round.
  • UFRJ leads in openings with 9,120 seats, followed by UFF (8,931) and UFPB (8,005), while Ufam offers 2,520 seats to lead the North and UFS lists 5,940 with 300 added places and seven new courses.
