“This intervention is based on a study that analyses the dropout patterns of a full cohort of undergraduate students in Spanish universities. Using logit models, the study provides evidence of the social inequalities associated with academic performance and university dropout in Spain. In contrast to previous studies that use partial data from specific universities and/or survey data, this one covers all universities in Spain. In this sense, uses for the first time the official census data from the Integrated University Information System of Spain to provide robust evidence that could be extrapolated to other contexts. The results show that academic performance during the first year of university marks unequal dropout patterns depending on the social origin of the students. As in other countries, a compensation effect is detected. Trajectories of low-performing students are heterogeneously translated into dropouts, depending on the socioeconomic background of their families.”
