Resumo: Initially, the article tries to describe the role of Community Colleges in the American system of higher education. It describes its origin, growth, income sources, and relationship with other higher education institutions. After that, it shows some of the problems of the system – alongside the increase in access, the analyses have pointed to the fragility of the success, i.e., students’ performance, as well as equity showing the strong stratification and hierarchy of the American educational system. Therefore, it is argued that the dilemmas and problems are not strictly related to the school system, but to a social formation in which inequality is particularly high.

En seguida, registra algunos de los problemas del sistema – al lado de la ampliación del acceso, los análisis han señalado la fragilidad del éxito, es decir, del desempeño de los estudiantes, así como de la equidad, o sea, la flerte estratificación y jerarquización del sistema educativo norteamericano.

Em seguida, registra alguns dos problemas do sistema – ao lado da ampliação do acesso, as análises têm apontado a fragilidade do sucesso, isto é, da performance dos estudantes, bem como da equidade, isto é, da forte estratificação e hierarquização do sistema educativo americano.
