PINHEIRO, Daniel Calbino; PEREIRA, Rafael Diogo  e  XAVIER, Wescley Silva. The impacts of quota in higher education: a balance of quota students in the state universities. Rev. Bras. Educ. [online]. 2021, vol.26, e260020.  Epub 09-Abr-2021. ISSN 1809-449X.  https://doi.org/10.1590/s1413-24782021260020.

The work proposed to systematize the researches that evaluated the performance of the beneficiaries of the affirmative actions in the state universities. Through an integrative literature review, we sought to identify its effectiveness from three dimensions: academic performance indexes; evasion rate; and rate of diploma between quota holders and wide competition. The results indicate that, over the seventeen years of quota policies in Brazil, the quota holders obtained similar income to the other students, even surpassing them in the indexes of graduation and in the lowest dropout rates. It is concluded that the data dispel the myth that the quality of education would be worse with the quotas, despite the relevance of the continuous monitoring of these results, since the focus on the reality of the state institutions is still scarce.
