Minister considers that second phase candidates are the most harmed by exam delays

Correio da Manhã1 September 2026 at 19:01

Minister Fernando Alexandre considered that second phase national exam candidates are the most harmed by delays in the publication of results. This position was expressed by the government official in the context of difficulties observed in the scheduling of access to higher education exams.

Fernando Alexandre expressed confidence that higher education institutions will have "mechanisms" to integrate these students, minimizing the impact of delays on their academic trajectories. The minister thus acknowledges the limitations faced by these candidates.

The case of second phase candidates is particularly relevant, as these students are already at a temporal disadvantage compared to their first phase peers. The situation raises questions about equity in access to higher education in Portugal.
