Abstract

SOUZA, Thays Santos  and  ASSIS, Lúcia Maria de. High School National Exam (Enem) under the perspective of the quotas policy at the Federal University of Goiás (UFG). Avaliação (Campinas) [online]. 2023, vol.28, e023013.  Epub Sep 05, 2023. ISSN 1982-5765.  https://doi.org/10.1590/s1414-40772023000100019.

This study aims to understand the National High School Examin (Enem) as a mechanism for accessing higher education in Brazil, focusing on the selection process of the Sistema de Seleção Unificada (SiSU) at the Federal University of Goiás (UFG), from the perspective of the Law n. 12,711/2012 (Quota Law), through a bibliographical and documental review articulating the history of selection processes, with emphasis on Enem and its developments as an instrument of access to higher education. Initially, Enem fulfilled the function of evaluating student performance in secondary education until it became the main selection mechanism for admission to higher education. This assessment, combined with the implementation of the Quota Law, promoted a process of inclusion of black and low-income people at UFG. However, there are still many challenges to be faced, especially in 2022, which marks the last year of validity of the Quota Law and many uncertainties regarding the perspective of its reissue by the National Congress.
