Candidates who opt for Modality II, in addition to their Identity Number, must provide their CPF number, inform the edition of the Enem they wish to take (between 2012 and 2022) and the registration number for the respective edition, so that they can be identified by Inep.

The selection process for Master's and Doctorate degrees is defined by the Graduate Programs. It may be through a test, interview, project presentation, recommendation letter, CV evaluation or other stages.
Each program has a notice, which lists the prerequisites for application and the stages of the selection process.
When registering online, you must attach the requested documents, which may be general, such as identity card, Individual Taxpayer Registry (CPF), voter registration card, proof of completion of military service, link to your Lattes CV and undergraduate degree; or even some specific proof from your field.
In some cases, a memorial is also requested, a document with a biographical summary about your university education and technical, didactic and scientific activities, for example; or a work plan, involving teaching, guidance and research activities.
This is a time for you to briefly talk about your academic trajectory, defend your project or pre-project and explain how it fits into the chosen area and line of research, how the research would be carried out, etc. If your Graduate Program requires proficiency in another language, you may be asked to read a text in that language, with free translation.
In the case of Graduate Programs that require proficiency in another language, proof of proficiency may be provided by taking a test or exam chosen by the school. But don't worry, the goal is to identify whether you understand the language indicated at the time of registration. Fluency in the language is not required, and this is not the main criterion for elimination.
It is part of the Lattes Platform, which is a virtual environment created by the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq) to integrate into a single system the databases of CVs, research groups and institutions from all over the country. If you don't have one yet, we have prepared a simple step-by-step guide on how to create one.
The evaluation criteria are defined by the selection committees, formed by professors from each Graduate Program. They are responsible for preparing the tests and individual interviews; analyzing the documentation presented; evaluating the project and Lattes and publishing the results of the selection process.
Each Graduate Program has a different way of evaluating candidates. Some use scores for each stage, others prioritize the suitability of the project to the chosen line of research, among other criteria. The approved projects will be published on the website and within the deadline indicated in the schedule of the announcement. Good luck, we are rooting for you!
Don't be discouraged! Going through the selection process itself is a form of learning and you will be better prepared to present your project again at the next opportunity. One tip is to talk to the coordinator of the Graduate Program you are interested in to understand which points can be better developed and keep an eye on PUCRS channels to find out about the latest developments.
