States the institution or place where one studies.
خلفية ثقافية
Brazilians often use the verb 'fazer' (to do/make) instead of 'estudar' when talking about their major. For example, 'Eu faço Direito' (I study Law). In Portugal, students often refer to their school as 'a minha faculdade' or 'a minha escola', and the phrase 'andar em' is a very common informal way to say you attend a school. In both countries, the distinction between 'Universidade' (University) and 'Faculdade' (Faculty/College) is important. You study 'na faculdade' even if it's part of a larger 'universidade'.
Drop the 'Eu'
In Portuguese, verb endings tell you who is speaking. You can just say 'Estudo na...' and it sounds more native.
City Exceptions
While most cities use 'em', some like 'O Porto', 'O Rio de Janeiro', and 'A Haia' require contractions (no Porto, no Rio, na Haia).

Institution Gender
If you don't know the gender of a school, use 'em uma' (in a) to be safe, as it's a common generic form.
