Resumo:This article aimed to assess the dropout rate and efficiency (in terms of average grade) of quota students versus non-quota students at the Universidade Estadual de Ponta Grossa (UEPG), subdividing the analysis into teaching and bachelor’s degrees. To do this, the students were followed for at least eight years. Subsequently, the Propensity Score Matching method was used. As a corollary, there was no significant difference between the average performance of quota graduates versus those with open admission. It was found that quota students had a lower dropout rate, especially when analyzing bachelor’s courses.
