SUMMARY:

The changes that have taken place in society since the second half of the 20th century have demanded several transformations in the social, economic and political fields. As a result of globalization and the development of communication and information technologies, the current society, “called the knowledge society”, started to demand a new generation of workers with new standards of competence, with the need for changes in the higher education system. The neoliberal policies for education, implemented in Brazil since the 1990s, with a focus on the massification process of higher education, brought several problems, among which the increase in the dropout rate and the extension of permanence in the course. These problems have been aggravated in recent years, due to the change in the selection process for admission to Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). In this context, Brazilian educational policies to make entry into higher education more flexible have diversified the forms of entry, including, in addition to the traditional entrance exam, the Unified Selection System (SiSU), which started to use the mechanism for adjusting vacancies in courses. graduation of the IFES. The general objective of the Thesis was to analyze the changes that occurred in the profile and trajectory of students who dropped out of the Accounting course, establishing a relationship with the form of admission to UFRN, vestibular (2013.1) and ENEM/SiSU (2013.2). The theoreticalmethodological framework was built based on the Hermeneutic Phenomenology, using a qualitative approach. As for data collection procedures and techniques, document analysis and questionnaires were applied to all 79 dropouts from the UFRN Accounting Course who entered in 2013. To complement the information, interviews were used with a non-probabilistic sample composed of 21 students who had dropped out of the two selection processes. For data analysis, historical series were elaborated using quantitative data and content analysis for a better understanding of the subjects' interviews. We found that the number of students who dropped out in the period of the entrance exam selection process (2013.1) was 28 students, while in the period of the selection process ENEM/SiSU (2013.2) it was 51 students, resulting in an increase of 82.14% when comparing the two periods. There was also a change in the profile of dropouts, which showed an increase in the percentage of single students, as well as a considerable increase in female dropouts. Another feature to be highlighted in the change in the process is that the dropouts who joined the ENEM/SiSU were already graduates or were already students from other courses when they entered the Accounting course at UFRN. With regard to ENEM/SiSU, mobility has become a factor that has been contributing to evasion. There was an increase in the percentage of dropouts, both among quota students and among those with broad competition, influenced by the student's own socioeconomic context and by the grade obtained in the ENEM. It was also evident in the study that the factors that most influenced the trajectory of dropout students who entered the ENEM/SiSU were the problems associated with the teaching-learning process, the pedagogical practices used by teachers, the non-adaptation to the course and the aspiration for another course, while the reasons that most influenced those entering the entrance exam were the need to work, time to combine study and work, mobility, among others. Finally, it is concluded that there is a need to review the ENEM/SiSU operating policy, regarding the choice of the course, ensuring a better match between the interests of students and the choice of profession.
