Following the implementation of the Lei das Cotas (Affirmative Action Law) in Brazil, there has been debate as to whether students who were admitted through affirmative action perform at the same level as students admitted through traditional methods. This article examines the results of the Exame Nacional de Desempenho dos Estudantes (ENADE) from 2009 to 2012 to determine whether there is a relationship between students’ performance at the university level and the manner of their admittance. We find that students admitted to public universities under affirmative action perform at similar levels to students who were not, whereas quota students in private universities perform slightly better than students admitted through traditional methods.

Este artigo analisa os resultados do Exame Nacional de Desempenho dos Estudantes (ENADE) durante o periodo de 2009 a 2012 para determinar se existe uma relacao entre o desempenho dos alunos no âmbito universitario e as modalidades da sua admissao. Nossa analise revela que os estudantes que foram admitidos em universidades publicas atraves de acoes afirmativas tem o mesmo desempenho academico de estudantes que nao se beneficiam de acoes afirmativas, enquanto alunos cotistas em universidades privadas tem um desempenho ligeiramente melhor do que alunos admitidos atraves de metodos tradicionais.
