Hayek Selection Process

Our selection process is divided into two phases.

Phase 1:
Math and English proficiency will be assessed through exams (20 multiple-choice questions and 2 open questions for each subject, with a minimum passing score of 70%). Exemptions are granted for specific scores on standardized tests (e.g., SAT, TOEFL, ENEM). Candidates pre-selected by ProUni are exempt from the Math exam but must complete the other steps of the process.

Phase 2:
Candidates will be ranked based on the following criteria:

• High school transcripts (20%)
• Student portfolio (30%)
• 3-minute video pitch (20%)
• Simulated class activity (30%)
