D6. How to attend a Portuguese language course for non-national students?
Last Updated about a month ago
The University of Évora offers students who do not have Portuguese nationality the opportunity to attend a Portuguese language course free of charge.
⚠️To enroll in this course, which begins on September 21, 2026, you must first take a diagnostic test. To do so, log in to SIIUE (using your UÉ student credentials) and register for the course “Portuguese Language Diagnostic” (LLT14134O) as an extracurricular course by October 6, 2026.
After registration, consult the information on taking the test in the Moodle section for that course; you must complete the questionnaire and then take the diagnostic test by October 9, 2026, at the latest.
After taking the diagnostic test, students will be informed via a notification in SIIUE of the level at which they have been placed. Following this notification, they should check the Moodle section for the “Portuguese Language Diagnostic” course (LLT14134O) to obtain information about their class schedule.
Enrollment in the “Portuguese Language Diagnostic” course is optional; you should only enroll if you actually intend to take the Portuguese language course afterward. The following cases are exceptions and will be automatically enrolled in the “Portuguese Language Diagnostic” course upon registration:
- international students admitted through the special admissions process for international students who do not have proficiency in the Portuguese language
- students enrolled in the preparatory course for admission to higher education, in the track designed for international students
- students participating in an exchange program who indicated during the application process that they were interested in taking a Portuguese language course
Please note that if you are admitted as an international student to the 1st cycle and MI and are not proficient in Portuguese, it is compulsory to attend this course, under the terms of Decree-Law no. 36/2024, as currently republished, and article 53 of the University of Évora's Access and Admission Regulations.
As you were informed when you were admitted to the University of Évora, proficiency in the Portuguese language is a condition of access. As such, your admission and enrollment is subject to attending and passing, in the year of admission, the course unit (UC) corresponding to the language level determined in the diagnostic test. Passing this UC is compulsory in order to be able to renew enrollment in the following year, or to obtain any certification of any curricular act.”
