What UniSALESIANO Aracatuba does

UniSALESIANO Aracatuba, formally Centro Universitário Católico Salesiano Auxilium, is a private Catholic higher-education institution founded in 2003 and operated by Missão Salesiana de Mato Grosso, the Brazilian arm of the global Salesian network present in 134 countries. The institution delivers undergraduate, graduate (especialização), and doctoral programs across two campuses in northwestern São Paulo state — Araçatuba (the larger site) and Lins — offering roughly 21 and 10 undergraduate programs respectively, with concentrations in healthcare (including Medicina, Biomedicina, and other health tracks), veterinary sciences, law, education, and a recently launched Digital Games technology program. Academic delivery combines on-campus instruction with a distance-learning (EAD) platform and a Virtual Learning Environment (AVA), supplemented by community extension activities such as the Clínica Veterinária Meu Pet, the Zatti Saúde partnership, and preventive-health outreach with Grupo AMB Bag.

The business model is tuition-driven and consumer-facing. Students pay recurring monthly fees (mensalidades) per program, generating the bulk of revenue across undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral cohorts on both campuses. Distribution is regional, anchored in the Araçatuba/Lins corridor of São Paulo state, with supplementary reach via EAD. Auxiliary revenue and reputational positioning are supported by clinical/academic partnerships (e.g., UNILAB, Laboratórios Sodré) for internship pipelines, by community-service programs that reinforce accreditation standing, and by academic outputs including multiple journals and the CITE International Congress on Technology in Education. The institution has held continuous MEC accreditation for 20 years and has received 21 consecutive ABMES Social Responsibility awards.
