Brazilian Student Association of UVA

Club Description

The Brazilian Student Association (BRASA) is an organization dedicated to upholding Brazilian traditions at the UVA and sharing Brazilian culture and the Portuguese language to members, associated members and the greater UVA community. We also assist prospective students with the application process and promote the UVA and the benefits of studying abroad to prospective students.  BRASA serves as a cultural hub for Brazilians and those interested in Brazilian culture at UVA. We constantly hold social events for the Brazilian community at UVA and strive to create a welcoming environment for Brazilians at the university. We aim to provide a welcoming environment to aid Brazilian international student's transition to UVA and spread our warm culture through culinary and sports events, watch parties, academic get-togethers, and informational lectures by prominent speakers involved with BRASA or Brazilian culture.
