UniSALESIANO Lins

What UniSALESIANO Lins does

UniSALESIANO Lins (Centro Universitário Católico Salesiano Auxilium - Campus Lins) is a Catholic Salesian university center founded in 2003 in São Paulo state, Brazil, operating two campuses — Lins and Araçatuba — under the nonprofit maintaining entity Missão Salesiana de Mato Grosso. The institution offers roughly 10 undergraduate programs at the Lins campus (Administration, Biomedicine, Law, Physical Education, Nursing, Agronomic Engineering, Physiotherapy, Medicine, Psychology, and Advertising) and 20+ undergraduate programs plus doctoral degrees in Health Sciences and Law at Araçatuba. Supporting academic infrastructure includes the in-house AVA virtual learning environment, an EAD distance-learning platform, a unified online library spanning two physical branches (Dom Henrique Mourão in Lins and Papa João Paulo II in Araçatuba), facial biometric student authentication, and a PIBIC scientific-initiation program; research output is channeled through three recurring journals (UNIVERSITAS, eUnisalesianoS@úde, eHUMANIT@S).

Revenue is generated primarily through recurring monthly tuition from undergraduate and graduate students, supplemented by postgraduate specialization and doctoral program fees. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; financial aid is delivered via PROUNI and institutional scholarships. Admissions flow through multiple pathways — vestibular entrance exam, ENEM score transfer, diploma transfer, and scheduled campus visits — and is supported by a multi-channel marketing stack (institutional website, Instagram/Facebook, regional career fairs, alumni testimonials, and AVA tutorial videos on YouTube). The GTM blends a direct-to-consumer enrollment process with a community-led motion anchored by the VAMS missionary volunteer program, Salesian pastoral activities, and a maintained alumni network.

The university serves a regional student base in Northwest São Paulo, with strategically relevant academic partnerships (UNESP for doctoral programs and research collaboration; Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein for clinical specialization pathways) and minor commercial ties (Nestlé Career Week, Sebrae entrepreneurship workshops, AD Instruments research prizes). Ancillary revenue and capability extensions include the public Clínica Veterinária Meu Pet and the Zatti Saúde healthcare extension. UniSALESIANO is private, not venture-backed or publicly traded, and operates without disclosed financial statements.
