Resumo(s)
This paper studies some determinants of evasion in Brazilian’s Tertiary Education. It addresses the impact that being a freshman, studying in Distance Learning, enrolling in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineer and Mathematics) subjects and having financial aid have on drop-out rates, focusing in the Private Sector. With a database of 1.662.846 data points and 13 variables (including our dependent), and using Logistic Regression,I concluded that Distance Learning, being a fresh man and access to financing significantly impact evasion rates(where the first raises drop-out chances, while the others decreases them). Although STEM also influences evasion, it doesn’t have a strong impact
