The Permanent Commission for Entrance Exams (Comvest) opened registrations for the Unicamp 2022 Entrance Exam this Monday, August 2nd. Registrations can be made until the 8th of september, exclusively online, using a form available on the Comvest website: www.comvest.unicamp.br. The Unicamp 2022 Entrance Exam offers 2.540 vacancies, distributed across 69 courses. Candidates can take up to two course options, as long as they are in the same area. The registration fee is R$180,00 and can be paid up to September 10.
The number of places offered by the Vestibular returned to 2.540, as the 639 places in Enem-Unicamp will be offered again this year by the modality, with registrations starting on November 3rd. The 2022 Entry Manual is available for consultation on the Comvest website, with information about the registration process, tests and other steps. According to the calendar, the first call will be held on February 14th.
Given the context of the pandemic, Comvest reinforces that it will continue to adopt all sanitary measures when taking the tests, to ensure that all protocols required by health authorities are followed. Considering that this context also had impacts on education, Comvest made adaptations to the tests and will hold a series of online events to bring entrance candidates closer together, providing information and answering questions.
“We have a huge challenge in holding the 2022 entrance exam, which has to do with student engagement and mobilization. We have seen data, for example, of a very significant drop in enrollment in Enem, which means that these young people are being impacted in their ability to plan their future. Maintaining its own entrance exam as Unicamp maintains, and being proud to carry out an entrance exam with the characteristics it does, is a bet on the future. In this sense, we are clear that we have to prepare a selection process with students who spent two of the three years of high school basically in remote learning. And we will work to always be close to these students, as we have done in recent years”, says Comvest coordinator, José Alves Freitas Neto.

Exemptions
Unicamp served 8.327 students with exemption from registration fee, which will be worth as much for the Unicamp 2022 Entrance Exam as well as for the Enem-Unicamp 2022 modality. Successful candidates must access a specific form at the time of registration and use the exemption code. There will still be the possibility of a partial reduction in the rate, which can be requested from the 4th to the 6th of August. The criteria for reduction can be seen in the Entrance exam notice.
Competition
The first phase of the Unicamp 2022 Entrance Exam will be held in a single day, 7 November 2021, and the second phase will take place on the days January 9th and 10th, 2022. Specific Skills tests for candidates for Music courses will be held before the first phase, in September and October. For other courses that require specific tests (Architecture and Urban Planning, Performing Arts, Visual Arts and Dance), the Specific Skills tests will take place between January 13th and 15th, 2022.
For this year, Comvest decided to maintain the same number of questions from the first phase of the 2021 Entrance Exam, which had been reduced from 90 to 72. The maximum time to complete the test will be four o'clock. Interdisciplinary questions will not be charged. Furthermore, there will be a change in the mathematics test, which will be different for humanities candidates, with questions more applied to the area.
The changes take into account the difficulties faced by students in the face of the pandemic, which also affects demobilization to pursue higher education. Therefore, adjustments were made and initiatives were taken to encourage student engagement.
The rector of Unicamp, Antonio José Meirelles, calls on students to take the Entrance Exam and come and study at the University. “We see the future of Unicamp with great optimism and we would like you to dedicate yourself a lot, fight hard so that you can enter and become our students so that we can build this future together. Our optimism that Brazil will recover the idea that science, technology and public service are important for the country's future is something that motivates us to continue the fight and we want to count on you at our side.”
