The Ministry of Education (MEC) has released the official schedule and criteria for the 2026 Unified Selection System (Sisu). This process selects students for free higher education courses at public institutions nationwide. Sisu 2026 will accept applications from January 19-23, 2026, with results announced on January 29. A key change allows applicants to use scores from the 2023, 2024, or 2025 ENEM exams, with the system automatically selecting the best-weighted average. This year's Sisu offers a record 274,800 spots across 136 institutions. The process maintains its single-stage application structure and includes provisions for waitlists and affirmative action policies.
