Dissertação (Mestrado em Administração Pública) - Universidade Federal de Alfenas, Varginha, MG, 2016.https://repositorio.unifal-mg.edu.br/handle/123456789/914Law number 12.711, passed in August 29, 2012, regulates student access from public colleges to higher education at federal institutes. This law established a quota system, based on racial origins, and expanded access opportunities to higher education for all. The purpose of this analytic research was to analyse academic performance students quota holders and not quota holders who started their studies after applied this law. The research verified the academic standing of 424 individual students from 10 classrooms who had finished their coursework considering technical courses integrated to high school and technological higher education of the Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia de São Paulo - Campus Salto. This study assumed a quantitative approach; the date collection instrument was documentary research, and it was made as an exploratory analysis of data comparing dropout rates, completion, failure and academic performance and performance in the recruitment process. The results showed clearly that despite the differences between the students entering through reservation of vacancies and the extensive competition in all comparisons there favored classes of both groups. Quite noteworthy is a lower level of evasion in the group of quota holders, higher completion rate of non quota holders and significant differences between the averages of the two groups in only three classrooms. The biggest differences among quota holders and non quota holders, were found in the performance of the recruitment process, in which nine of the ten classrooms of quota holders had significantly higher averages. This study shows by means of empirical data the importance of this quota policy in expanding access to education and shows that despite the social-economic difficulties, the quota holders fleeing on a much smaller scale. However, there is the need to implement actions aimed at helping to reduce dropout and improve academic performance, as well as quota holders and non-quota holders.application/pdfAcesso Abertohttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/EducaçãoPolítica de cotasLei n° 12.711Desempenho AcadêmicoIFSPEducationQuota policyLaw number 12.711Academic performanceADMINISTRACAO::ADMINISTRACAO PUBLICAEDUCACAO::TOPICOS ESPECIFICOS DE EDUCACAODissertaçãoMiranda, Adílio Renê Almeida
