SUMMARY:

To democratize public higher education in Brazil, public policies aimed at access and permanence were instituted. The Quotas Law, which aims to guarantee a reserve of places and the National Student Assistance Program (Pnaes), which seeks to expand permanence conditions, are examples of these contemporary policies that are being implemented in Federal Institutions of Higher Education ( Ifes). At the Federal University of São João del-Rei (UFSJ) the support for socio-academic promotion is one of the main Student Assistance Programs developed with resources from Pnaes. The aim of this study was to assess whether the socio-academic promotion aid influenced the permanence and academic performance of freshmen by income quotas between the first semester of 2016 and the second semester of 2019. A bibliographical and documentary research was carried out. The evolution of the university was briefly described, followed by the expansion of higher education in Brazil until the 2000s, later on public policies for expanding access and permanence in Brazilian higher education with a focus on the sector were discussed. public. Access and permanence were also addressed as complementary issues to democratize public higher education and, finally, the evaluation of public policies and social programs, as well as the literature dealing with the influence of Pnaes on academic performance and dropout. As methodological procedures for data analysis, t test and Mann Whitney U test were used to compare academic performance. Binary logistic regression was applied to verify the prediction of assistance during permanence, in addition to the use of the constructed permanence indicator, and finally, a categorical thematic analysis of the observations left by students regarding the reason for canceling enrollment was performed. The results regarding academic performance showed no statistically significant difference between income quota beneficiaries and non-beneficiaries of the aid in 33 of the 38 courses analyzed. The result of the logistic regression showed that the support for socio-academic promotion was a significant predictor in 21 of the 38 courses analyzed, increasing the chances of permanence for income quota holders, and the indicators pointed to the superiority of permanence of income quota holders who had the aid in relation to those who did not have it in almost all courses. The thematic analysis showed that more than 64% of the income quota holders registered change of HEI, change of course at UFSJ, change of course or intention to change course, with aid beneficiaries considerably surpassing non-beneficiaries in the first two categories. Insufficient financial resources represented 7.78% of the reasons for non-permanence, predominantly registered by income quota holders who did not receive assistance. The evaluation carried out demonstrated the effectiveness of the Student Assistance Program in fulfilling the Pnaes objective related to the reduction of dropout rates (increased permanence) so that financial assistance has been essential for maintaining the bond of students from higher income classes. losses with the institution.
