Inep Delays Enem 2025 Score Release Date

Prospective university students across the country are awaiting official confirmation regarding the release of Enem 2025 scores. With the registration period for the Sisu (Unified Selection System) set to begin on January 19, the National Institute for Educational Studies and Research Anísio Teixeira (Inep) has not yet announced when the results of the November exam will be available.

The delay creates uncertainty for candidates relying on these scores for admission to public universities, as well as for those planning to use the exam for the Prouni and Fies programs. While the 2024 exam had a clearly defined schedule published months in advance, the 2025 notice simply states that access will be granted on a date to be determined later. Inep officials have indicated that the schedule should be finalized by the end of the current day.

Just 10 days before the Sisu registration window opens, the Inep remains silent on the specific date for publishing the Enem 2025 scorecards. The examination was conducted in November of the previous year and serves as the primary gateway for admission into higher education institutions across Brazil. The upcoming selection processes include Sisu, scheduled from January 19 to 23, and Prouni, running from January 26 to 29.

Unlike the 2024 edition, where the publication date was clearly established in the notice released on May 13 of that year, the 2025 documentation lacks this crucial information. The current notice only specifies that participants will be able to access their scores by entering their CPF (Individual Taxpayer Registry) and password on a date to be announced later.

Despite speculation circulating on social media and some news outlets suggesting a release date of January 16, Inep has not confirmed this timeline. For the past week, inquiries have been directed to the institute regarding this date. On Friday, January 9, the agency responded that it was not yet possible to confirm the calendar, though they expected the information to be defined by the end of the day.

Candidates awaiting their Enem 2025 results are likely aware of the technical difficulties that have plagued previous editions. During the score releases for the 2023 and 2024 exams, students reported significant issues accessing the Participant Page.

Common complaints during those periods included:

• System instability on the Participant Page
• Errors in the verification image (captcha)
• Failures in the login process

These past technical hurdles add to the anxiety surrounding the current delay in announcing the schedule.

The 2025 Enem administration was marked by a significant controversy involving a student named Edcley Teixeira. The student was accused of anticipating at least eight questions that subsequently appeared on the actual exam.

Following an exclusive report, Inep made the decision to nullify three of the leaked questions. However, reports indicate that messages suggest premature access to two additional questions that were not annulled. This incident has cast a shadow over the integrity of the exam cycle.

As the deadline approaches, thousands of students remain in a holding pattern, waiting for Inep to finalize the release schedule for the Enem 2025 scores. The lack of a predefined date, combined with the history of technical failures and the recent controversy regarding leaked questions, underscores the challenges facing the examination system. Candidates are advised to monitor official channels for the imminent announcement regarding the exact time and date of the score release.
