The Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso has opened pre-registration for 1,000 spots in its hybrid Bachelor of Science and Technology program, replacing entrance examinations with high school academic performance for selection.
Cuiabá offers the most seats with 300 available spots, while Rondonópolis and Tangará da Serra follow with 100 each. The Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso is admitting students without an entrance exam, relying instead on historical academic records. The Faculty of Science and Technology at the Várzea Grande University Campus manages administrative oversight, with the Educational Technology Secretariat handling technical execution.
UFMT Divides Seats Across 12 Centers
The curriculum spans 12 regional support hubs across the state, dividing the thousand openings between broad competition categories and affirmative action quotas.

Localities that fail to attract at least 30 candidates face cancellation for that specific cohort. Affected individuals may transfer their application to an active center.
Program Requirements Mandate 2,400 Hours
Distance learning accounts for 1,200 asynchronous hours, while 720 hours demand physical presence at the designated regional hub. Synchronous sessions fill the remaining 480 hours.
Selection relies on the notes of Portuguese and Mathematics from the high school transcript. Candidates holding a high school completion certificate are eligible to apply, provided they submit complete documentation and pay the registration fee.
Admissions Timeline Sets November Deadlines
The administrative timeline moves through October and November 2026.
- Pre-registration runs through October 13, 2026, via the designated admission portal.
- The formal registration window spans from October 27 to November 6, 2026.
- Application fee waivers may be requested on October 27 and 28, 2026.
- The standard application fee is set at R$ 90,00, payable by bank slip through November 6, 2026.
- The publication of final results is scheduled for November 17, 2026.
Enrolled students must maintain a minimum 75 percent presence in each component of physical and mediated synchronous activities. Missing mandatory in-person evaluations during the initial trimester results in enrollment cancellation unless excused by the academic board.
Final results will be published on November 17, 2026.
