1. For undergraduate programmes, CEFET/RJ normally admits students through SISU (Sistema de Seleção Unificada), using the ENEM examination as the selection stage.
2. The 2026 undergraduate selection notice confirms that CEFET/RJ used a single SISU 2026 selection process for vacancies in both semesters.
3. For an international qualification, applicants should be prepared to provide officially authenticated/legalised educational documents and an appropriate Portuguese translation, where required, so that the qualification can be accepted as equivalent to Brazilian secondary education.
4. International students should also arrange the appropriate passport/residence documentation and Brazilian CPF, as required for enrolment.
5. It is important to note that CEFET/RJ does not appear to operate a separate general undergraduate admission route specifically for foreign students; the regular undergraduate route is tied to SISU/ENEM.
6. Therefore, international applicants should carefully check the current CEFET/RJ and SISU notice to determine whether they are eligible for the particular admission cycle and how a foreign secondary school qualification can be used.
