Abstract

We aim to analyze the academic performance of the subsidized students with affirmative actions and the non-subsidized students. To do so we analyzed data from admission to the course of Business Economics and Controllership of University of São Paulo. We have analyzed approval rates and grades from 5.040 observations of first year students. The analysis of the grades of students and due approvals of the first year of the course, point out that in most courses there is no differentiation between students with and without bonus. This is perceived in few disciplines, mainly in the quantitative methods courses.
