RESUMO:

The most recent actions for inclusion of people with disabilities in higher education is Law 13.409/2016, which established that federal institutions bound to the Ministry of Education would reserve in each exam, quotas for people with disabilities. This study emerged from the need to investigate the permanence and profile of the first students benefited by this law within the UFRN, entering via the Sisu/2018 selection process. We list as general objective: to evaluate the permanence in the university from the perception of the student with disabilities after the first semester. As specific objectives: to characterize the educational and socioeconomic profile of the students with disabilities entering the UFRN; Identify the specific educational demands due to the disability condition; Know the expectations of students with disabilities in relation to UFRN; To raise facilitating and limiting aspects for permanence during the first six months in UFRN; Identify indicators that support the planning and implementation of institutional actions aimed at the participation and learning of students with disabilities. To reach these objectives we use a methodological theoretical framework that underlies exploratory and descriptive research (GIL, 1999, TRIVIÑO, 1987). The methodology used combined qualitative and quantitative elements, expanding results (DAL-FARRA and LOPES, 2013), assuming a mixed character (CRESWELL, 2007). For data collection we used document analysis (GIL, 1999), seeking data from 80 incoming 
students; the online questionnaire, from which we obtained data from 54 student respondents, and a semi-structured interview (MINAYO, 2010) with 15 of these students. Regarding the analysis, we use the technique of content analysis (BARDIN, 2011) and descriptive statistics. The results point to the existence of an effective inclusion policy at UFRN and to the fact that students with disabilities are coming to courses considered highly selective, or "statistically unlikely". Adds to this, the good expectations brought by the students in relation to the course and the university. Then we realized, as collaborating and facilitating factors for permanence: the institutional positioning regarding the actions for inclusion; the understanding and collaboration of friends, professors and public servers; mention of the importance given to educational and financial aid and resources as a means of dignifying permanence. As limiting aspects for permanence, it was highlighted the lack of knowledge of the student about of all the aid / resources and rules provided by the institution; failures in the flow of information exchange between institutions (professors and technical staff) and students about their specificities; professors lack of knowledge about how to act in front of people with disabilities; bureaucracy and delay in providing financial aid; spaces, equipment and furniture without adaptation. We conclude that although still far from ideal, quotas have reached a significant portion of people with disabilities and they have challenged the real possibilities of permanence in higher education institutions. We hope this work will contribute to the holistic expansion of the look to what is not homogeneous, but diverse in nature: human beings, who regardless of their condition are unique and diverse at the same time.
