    This research, whose theme is Higher Education, aims to discuss, through the profile of the university entrant, the pluralities that make up the juvenile mosaic, and involve the transition from High School to Higher Education. It also seeks to point out some actions that interfere in the student’s permanence in the university. The methodology used is qualitative and quantitative. The data collection instrument was an on-line questionnaire with nineteen objective questions applied to entrants of undergraduation courses at a University located in the South of Brazil, in 2016, 1st semester. The analysis of the data was based on the strategy of methodological triangulation, which allows the combination and crossing of research methods and techniques. The results show that: a) the profile of the university entrants reveals, among other data, that the majority are female; they are economically dependent on their families and come from public schools; b) the participation in cultural activities such as theater, cinema, shows and in leisure activities such as sports, dance and keep fit is moderate; c) the actions of welcoming and attending to studentsin the course and institutional actions are essential so that the transition from one school stage to another occurs in a calm way,and for ensuring the permanence of the student in the university; d) the majority of university entrants want to develop skills for different professional opportunities, and to acquire specific knowledge in the area of general culture. We observed that the process of transition from High School to Higher Education is dependent not only on the education they receive, but also on the structure that receives them. The university must act as a field of specific education, but it must also offer opportunities to increase the cultural capital of the students.
