In the second presidential period of Juan Manuel Santos, Ser Pilo Paga was the most important policy to promote the access of poor youths to university studies. The objective of this paper is to expose the negative impacts of that policy in terms of privatization,inequality and underfunding in Colombian public university. According to the objectives and evolution of Ser Pilo Paga, the article shows the limits of that policy with regard to (a) the consolidation of student loans as a means of financing, (b) the cash concentration in private universities, (c) the financial weakness of public universities, (d) the inefficiency of the policy, (e) the reproduction of class and regional inequalities, (f) its risks of oligopoly and (g) its inconsistency with respect to the policies implemented by governments of OECD countries. The conclusion insists in the importance of building a financial modelcommitted with the defense of higher education as a right and a common good, and based on principles of universality, unconditionality and individuality.
