More than 11,000 places are available for the second phase of the national higher education access competition in Portugal. The updated list of available places results from the non-enrollment of 4,500 students who were placed in the first phase but ultimately did not enroll in the educational institutions where they were placed.
Among the courses still available are places for Medicine and Aerospace Engineering, two courses traditionally very sought after by Portuguese students. This availability comes at a time when many candidates who were not placed in the first phase or who wish to change their option are looking for new opportunities.
The national higher education access competition in Portugal operates in two phases, with the second phase allowing students who did not secure a place in the first phase or who wish to try other options to apply for the places that became vacant. Students who were placed in the first phase but did not complete enrollment contribute to the increase in available places in this second phase.
