Resumo:
Given that access to higher education has been rapidly expanding in Brazil, this study aims to catalog returns to this level of education across time and finds, as expected, a fall in returns beginning in 2002. Currently at 75.7 por cento by OLS estimates, the returns are high enough to inspire further investment, but returns at lower quartiles, as estimated by quantile regressions, not only are lower at 55.4 por cento, but also have declined much more sharply. Among the possible causes of this discrepancy are the quality of education, coupled with unequal access to good universities, and the presence of public policies such as Prouni and FIES.
