ENEM Scores Open Doors to Higher Education and Careers in Brazil and Portugal
The 2025 ENEM exam results have been released, providing students in Brazil with multiple opportunities for higher education and career advancement. The scores can be used to access university spots through the Sisu system, which is dedicated to public universities, and to secure scholarships via Prouni, targeting students with a family income of up to three minimum wages. Additionally, the Fies program offers government-financed student loans with zero interest, payable after graduation. The exam results are also accepted by many private institutions as an alternative to traditional entrance exams. The course of study in Accounting (Contabilidade) is highly in demand, with over 529,505 professionals registered nationwide, driven by increasing tax complexity, corporate transparency, and digitalization. The accounting profession offers diverse roles such as auditing, fiscal consulting, management, and ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance). The use of technology and artificial intelligence is transforming the role of accountants, making them more strategic. After the official release of scores in January 2026, candidates can apply to programs like Sisu, Prouni, and Fies, with specific minimum score requirements (generally around 450 points). Career prospects in accounting are promising, with initial salaries ranging from R$3,000 to R$5,000, and potential for significant salary growth and managerial positions, especially in large companies where salaries can reach R$27,000 monthly. The article emphasizes that the ENEM is a key pathway for students aiming for a career in accounting, offering multiple avenues for access and financial support, thus broadening professional opportunities in Brazil and abroad.
