QS Best Student Cities ranking: 70th
With six institutions in the QS World University Rankings® 2018, São Paulo certainly has strong credentials as a study abroad destination. Leading the pack is Universidade de São Paulo, ranked 121st in the world.
The largest city in the Southern Hemisphere, São Paulo is vibrant, and somewhat chaotic. So if you like your cities full-on, São Paulo could be right up your alley. Carnivals take place through the year, the city’s nightlife is known for its intensity and its food is famed for both diversity and quality. In short, there’s no shortage of the Brazilian joie de vivre in this sprawling metropolis. It’s also a melting pot of different cultures, with large Italian, Arab and Japanese communities.
But it’s not just about sensory overload. São Paulo is Brazil’s cultural and financial capital, with many faces to explore. And its generous smattering of world-class universities mean it is firmly at the center of the Brazilian academic world. It scores particularly well in the employer activity indicator of the QS Best Student Cities ranking, showing that its graduates are in high demand.
