higher education, entry profile, free educationAbstract
The economic growth and social and political changes of the last 35 years have led more young Chileans from different social strata to access professional university education, forcing the higher education system to expand its offerings through the creation of new study centers and scholarships. This case study aims to determine the aspects that characterize the entrance profile of the university student at the Universidad Silva Henríquez (UCSH). To this end, a national and international literature review was conducted. Data collection was done through the examination of enrollment records of the Universidad Católica Silva Henríquez. The results indicate that the profile of UCSH students differs from the profiles of other universities in social, economic and academic terms. Taking into account the results of the study, recommendations are made to activate preventive actions.
