The Florida-Brazil Institute also administers the Out-of-State Tuition Exemption Program that exempts qualified Brazilian citizens studying at Florida public institutions of higher education from paying out-of-state tuition. During the 2010-11 academic year, 36 Brazilian community college and graduate students enrolled at eight public institutions were awarded out-of-state tuition exemptions.
We also coordinate UF’s participation in Brazil’s Science Without Borders Program, which provides support for undergraduate and graduate students from Brazil to study at UF. We also administer the Out of State Tuition Exemption Program, which provides exemptions of out-of-state tuition for up to 25 Brazilian students attending Florida’s public universities and community colleges.
