The Study Buddy Program is a volunteer program in which UFSC students give guidance and assistance to incoming international students on how to proceed in their first days in Florianópolis and at UFSC. In return, it provides our regular students the opportunity to get in contact with students from foreign universities and cultures from all over the world.

If you are a UFSC student and want to become a study buddy, fill in the Studdy Buddy Form, informing your language and gender preference. We would like to remind that Portuguese exchange students also need study buddies, in spite of the language. The information on the international student and his or her respective study buddy will be sent to their personal emails. In case there are not enough study buddies for all exchange students, the selection period will be extended. Application goes from 27 October  to 16 December.
