The diplomas are recognized for professional purposes, except for academic recognition, as they bear an apostille in accordance with the Hague Convention, which ensures international recognition of duly authenticated documents. However, we cannot guarantee academic recognition of our programs in Brazil, as we are an international institution.
Upon completion of the program, the institution provides all required documentation for submission through the Carolina Bori Platform, in accordance with Resolution No. 3 of June 22, 2016, and Normative Ordinance No. 22 of December 13, 2016.
It should be noted that the degree recognition process in Brazil is outside the scope of our services, and the institution does not conduct or monitor such procedures. Nevertheless, Enber University is duly registered on the Carolina Bori Platform for the purpose of diploma recognition applications.
The program is offered in Portuguese; however, some extracurricular courses may be delivered in other languages.
The courses to be completed are outlined in the program presentation provided to the student and are also available on the institution’s website.

No. Foreign master’s and doctoral programs completed abroad do not need to be taken in person. In the recognition of foreign degrees by Brazilian universities, the following factors are taken into consideration:
The program must have a workload similar to that required in Brazil;
The program must have a curricular structure that is related, similar, identical, or equivalent to those required by Brazilian institutions, in accordance with CNE/CES Opinion No. 56/2015, approved on February 11, 2015, and Normative Ordinance No. 022 of December 13, 2016;
The program’s field of study must be related, similar, identical, or equivalent to programs existing in Brazil;
The Brazilian university where the graduate of the foreign program submits the revalidation process must offer the corresponding program;
The completion documentation must be fully legalized for Brazil (apostille if from a country that is a party to the Hague Convention, or consular authentication);
Sworn translation of all program completion documentation;
Bound Dissertation or Thesis;
Curricula of the faculty members who evaluated the program;
Course syllabi and program content;
Submission of the revalidation application within the established deadline, through the public notice issued by the university;
If the university is registered with the Carolina Bori Portal, the student may track the process through the portal.
No. It does not matter whether no diploma has been recognized yet. This may have occurred for several reasons, one of which is that some graduates have not yet initiated the degree recognition process. There is also the possibility that institutions are facing a high volume of recognition requests, which increases the time required for evaluation.
No. Only the submitted documentation (Documentary Admissibility) and the student’s academic merit (publications and scientific output) are evaluated. Brazilian universities may not act in a manner that infringes upon the international sovereignty of the universities that awarded degrees to Brazilian students. The academic transcript, workload, and courses completed will be evaluated.
No. The entire degree recognition process, for academic purposes in Brazil, is carried out through the Carolina Bori Platform.
No. No foreign university has or will have the obligation to recognize any degrees in Brazil or in any other country. Its sole obligation is to provide the student with all required documentation upon completion of the program and to be legally established in its country of origin.
The fee may vary according to each higher education institution.
The amount is the same as the monthly tuition fee for the Master’s or Doctoral program. After the application is submitted, the institution will send a payment invoice to the student.
No. No international agreement, whether bilateral or multilateral, may facilitate the recognition of a degree in Brazil. The only aspect that may facilitate the student’s process under the Hague Convention is that, since Brazil is a party to the aforementioned treaty, the student will no longer be required to obtain consular authentication for the diploma, provided that the foreign university is located in a country that is a signatory to the Hague Convention.
Brazilian Legislation and the Recognition of Foreign Degrees
In Brazil, the process for degree recognition is governed by legislation that frames the system as an administrative act. On the website of the Ministry of Education (MEC), it is possible to consult the regulations that govern this recognition process:

How Does the North American Educational System Operate?
The American educational system is organized in a decentralized manner. Each of the 50 U.S. states has its own autonomy, independent of the Federal Government, in accordance with the distinct legislation of each state and of the Federal Government itself. In most other countries, higher education legislation is centralized by the Federal Government.
There is no Ministry of Education in the United States in the conventional format found in many other countries. Instead, there is the Department of Education (Federal Government), which prioritizes the overall oversight of education (funding, constitutional aspects, scholarships, among others). State authorities have full legal autonomy to authorize and regulate the operation of higher education institutions within their respective states. Colleges and universities in the United States enjoy full institutional autonomy in their operations, in compliance with constitutional law.
No. As the operational parameters of our institution are fully aligned with the duly constituted authorities, we do not conduct or authorize, under any circumstances, in-person activities of our programs on Brazilian territory.
No. Enber is an American university, registered with the Florida Department of Education through the Commission for Independent Education.
Legislation: Section 1005.06(1)(f), Florida Statutes / Rule 6E-5.001, Florida Administrative Code, Commission for Independent Education.
We are a duly legalized university and are listed on the Florida Board of Education Universities Roll.
No. The purpose of a university is to promote intellectual capital, contributing to educational advancement as defined in its core institutional mission.
Brazilian universities—public or private, duly accredited—are authorized to process the recognition of graduate-level (postgraduate) degrees, provided that they offer postgraduate programs evaluated, authorized, and recognized by the National Graduate System (SNPG) in the same field of knowledge.
