NOVA welcomes students of 21 nationalities in the 5th edition of the Pre-University Semester

Program will help students adapting to Higher Education in Portugal.

The Rectorate of NOVA welcomed on February 7 the students from the Spring edition of the Pre-University Semester. The group that now starts the program is made up of 44 students of 21 nationalities, from countries as diverse as Bangladesh, Kazakhstan, Egypt, the United States, Mozambique, Pakistan, Timor-Leste or Vietnam.

The Pre-University Semester, also known as Foundation Semester, was designed for students who have recently finished or are about to finish high school and plan to apply to Higher Education in Portugal. During the semester, students will have access to a set of subjects that will help them adapt to the European education system, level the technical knowledge and provide, when necessary, the language skills to start University studies at one of NOVA's Faculties.

The semester runs from February to August but registration for the next edition, starting in September 2020, is already open.
