The research, featuring a qualitative character, is linked to the research line of Public Policies and Curriculum and Educational Reform of the Post-Graduation Program: Education: Curriculum from Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP).

This study finds reference to theorists such as Freire (1983), whereby the inclusion is not a mere concept, especially when related to the context of the engagement of human being in understanding their reality; and Gramsci (1979), this, considering that the human being can influence the events, because the historical development is not predetermined. The research developed is based on documentary and bibliographical analysis and field data collection through the Internet and semi structured interview. Despite improving the access of lowincome population to higher education, Prouni is not still enough, requiring the adoption of actions from public policies and institutions of higher education that, in fact, motivate the permanence, inclusion and completion of the course by the grantee. It was also found out that the possibility of the course completion is focused, currently, in the personal effort of the student
