CEREZO, Leticia. The entrance to the university of young people in situation of social vulnerability: reasons and factors that motivate them. Rev. iberoam. educ. super [online]. 2018, vol.9, n.25, pp.62-84. ISSN 2007-2872.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iisue.20072872e.2019.25.339.

The processes of expansion of higher education that took place in Argentina made it possible to democratize the access to university higher education, but they have not achieved qualitative democratization while social inequalities persist as conditioning factors of the educational trajectories. In this article the authors are interested in providing knowledge related to the entrance of young people in situations of social vulnerability to public universities, from a mainly qualitative approach. They specifically deal with the main motivations adduced by young people regarding their admission to the university and the factors that influenced the choice of studying in a given institution.

Keywords : university higher education; public universities; income; vulnerable sectors; Argentina.
