Exam delays harm students in the second phase of higher education

Diário de Coimbra1 September 2026 at 19:00

Students participating in the second phase of higher education face delays in taking and receiving exam results. The situation is causing harm to candidates who depend on these results to secure a place at educational institutions.

Results from the second phase are expected to be released on September 30. This delay in announcing the results places additional pressure on students, who need quick responses to plan the next steps of their academic career.

After the second phase concludes, a third phase of applications and enrollment is scheduled. This phase is expected to occur between October 10 and 12, which means students with delayed results will have little time to prepare and participate in this final stage of the higher education admission process.
