If you are coming from the United States, you may be eligible to earn course credit for studying Brazilian Portuguese at Caminhos. Through our academic partnerships, some U.S. universities recognize Caminhos for credit. We recommend contacting your study abroad or international office to start the approval process. Please keep in mind that credit approval ultimately depends on your home institution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
