SUS is a government-funded healthcare system designed to provide universal access to healthcare services for all residents, including foreign students. It offers a range of medical services, from primary care to specialized treatments. As a student, you can typically access SUS by registering at a local health clinic, known as a &#8220;<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">posto de sa\u00fade<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">&#8220;. Upon registration, you&#8217;ll receive a SUS card, which allows you to schedule appointments and receive medical care. SUS covers a broad range of healthcare services, including doctor visits, vaccinations, emergency care, and hospitalization.

Additionally, the university campus offers great options for leisure activities and outdoor sports. However, as Camobi is one of the largest neighborhoods in Santa Maria, some accommodations may be quite far from campus and transportation options are limited. Requesting rides via taxi apps in Camobi can also be challenging due to the limited number of drivers in the area. Therefore, if you intend to live in Camobi, be aware of the bus routes and the distance from UFSM.<\/span><\/p><\/div><div class=\"OutlineElement Ltr SCXW73892777 BCX0\" style=\"margin: 0px;padding: 0px;clear: both;cursor: text;overflow: visible;position: relative;direction: ltr;color: #000000;font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Segoe UI Web', Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;font-size: 12px\"><p class=\"Paragraph SCXW73892777 BCX0\" lang=\"PT-BR\" style=\"margin-right: 0px;margin-bottom: 10.6667px;margin-left: 0px;padding: 0px;vertical-align: baseline;background-color: transparent\" xml:lang=\"PT-BR\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">On the other hand, the benefits of living in the city center or other nearby neighborhoods include better infrastructure and a greater variety of shopping, entertainment, and restaurant options.

Be prepared for both high and low temperatures, as well as a mix of sunny and rainy days.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The months with the highest temperatures are November, December, January, February, and March (spring-summer), with highs normally ranging from 27\u00baC to 30\u00baC (80.6\u00baF to 86\u00baF). Conversely, June and July (winter) are the coldest months, averaging around 10\u00baC (50\u00baF), with maximum temperatures of 19\u00baC (66.2\u00baF). However, it is not uncommon to experience higher temperatures during these months as well. In April, May (fall), August, September, and October (winter-spring), temperatures usually range from 11\u00baC to 25\u00baC (51.8\u00baF to 77\u00baF).<\/span><\/p><h4>\u00a0<\/h4><h4><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-413 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ufsm.br\/app\/uploads\/sites\/906\/2024\/03\/Culture.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"68\" height=\"62\" \/>Culture<\/strong><\/h4><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The weather in Rio Grande do Sul shapes its culture and sets it apart from the rest of Brazil. While Brazil is known for its tropical climate, ideal for beach trips, outdoor sports, and samba music events, Rio Grande do Sul has the coldest climate in the country, leading to different cultural traditions. Rio Grande do Sul is known for <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">chimarr\u00e3o<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, a hot tea that warms you up on cold days, although it is enjoyed throughout the year. Made from <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">mate<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> tea, people often drink it while sitting in a circle and passing it around. The preparation and consumption of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">chimarr\u00e3o<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> are considered a social ritual, promoting friendship and chit-chat. Offering <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">chimarr\u00e3o<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> to visitors is a common sign of hospitality.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Gastronomy is another unique cultural tradition in Rio Grande do Sul. Our most typical food is <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">churrasco<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, a unique type of barbeque. Characterized by large cuts of meat, especially beef, seasoned with coarse salt, and slowly grilled over firewood or coal, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">churrasco<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> is a common social activity for family events or among friends. This tradition is so common that almost every apartment has a built-in barbecue grill.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Italian and German immigration has also brought additional culinary traditions to our region. From hearty pasta dishes and artisanal pizzas to delectable desserts like German kuchen, you\u2019ll find an abundance of Italian and German-inspired delights in the city\u2019s eateries and local markets.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Finally, it is important to highlight the warm hospitality of Santa Maria. Besides UFSM, the city is home to other reputable universities and research institutions. For this reason, many university students come to study and live away from their hometowns, building strong connections with their classmates, roommates, and friends. Many spots in the city cater to this university public, such as bars, caf\u00e9s, and nightclubs with accessible prices.<\/span><\/p><h4>\u00a0<\/h4><h4><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-411 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ufsm.br\/app\/uploads\/sites\/906\/2024\/03\/Banking.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"68\" height=\"65\" \/>Banking system<\/strong><\/h4><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Several Brazilian banks provide financial services like checking and savings accounts, loans, and credit cards. Nowadays, it is very common to conduct all transactions online through the banks\u2019 apps, including bill payments and transfers to other accounts. Additionally, the PIX system is available for any bank account, allowing instant money transfers with no fees between individuals and businesses, whether using the same or different banks.<\/span><\/p><h4>\u00a0<\/h4><h4><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-414 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ufsm.br\/app\/uploads\/sites\/906\/2024\/03\/Energia.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"66\" height=\"65\" \/>Sockets and voltage<\/strong><\/h4><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The current official standard for plugs and sockets is the three-prong outlet, but you can also find two-prong outlets in some places. The voltage in the city of Santa Maria is 220 volts, so make sure your devices are designed to use this voltage or are dual voltage.<\/span><\/p><h4>\u00a0<\/h4><h4><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-412 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ufsm.br\/app\/uploads\/sites\/906\/2024\/03\/Celular.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"61\" height=\"55\" \/>Telephone and internet services<\/strong><\/h4><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">To get mobile phone service in Brazil, you can subscribe to plans offered by providers such as Vivo, Claro, TIM, or Oi. Simply purchase a SIM card and select a plan at a local store or kiosk. Prepaid plans are very commonplace, allowing you to pay in advance for a certain amount of talk time and data, though postpaid plans are also an option.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For internet access, you can choose between fixed broadband and mobile data. Fixed broadband is provided by companies like NET, Vivo Fibra, or Oi Velox. They offer different plans with varying speeds and data limits, which can be consulted on the companies\u2019 websites. Once you have selected the plan that suits your needs, the necessary equipment will be set up for you. Mobile data plans are available through your mobile phone provider, and you can conveniently choose the best plan simultaneously with your mobile phone service.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-37172b5 elementor-align-center elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"37172b5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-xs\" href=\"#backontop\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"far fa-arrow-alt-circle-up\"><\/i>\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Top menu<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Important information \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Before arriving in Brazil, make sure you are up-to-date on all routine vaccines.
