Sumario:This article aims to explore the actions taken by federal universities located in the Brazilian Midwestern for the permanence of students with disabilities during the covid-19 pandemic. Stemming from a qualitative approach, with an exploration bias, this study obtained, for convenience, four analytical samples, by means of semi-structured interviews with four participants linked to the accessibility centers/sectors from universities in the Brazilian Midwestern. Through thematic analysis, four analytical axes were established: financing; technological accessibility; pedagogical and psychological support; and challenges during and after the pandemic. Results displayed the universities' difficulties and efforts in relation to the first three factors. The challenges during and after the pandemic concern internet connectivity, social and pedagogical isolation, inclusive educational practices, the return of face-to-face activities and facing attitudinal barriers.
