A very brief and remote experience
I've been having a good experience at UFPEL so far, but since I started my classes in august 2021, my classes were remote for the entire semester. Nowadays, I'm taking time out of university and focusing on a certificate program (Dramaturgy) I'm also enrolled at the present moment at SP Escola de Teatro.
URI - Frederico Westphalen
Actually, my University wasn't in the list. I graduated at the Universidade Regional Integrada do Alto Uruguai e das Missões, in Frederico Westphalen, Rio Grande do Sul. It's a university located in a small town in the countryside of the state, so it did the basic. My familly don't have enought money to send me to a bigger city, so I had to study at this one.
