Probable causes of this problem are examined, focusing on points of view held by institutions, responsibilities of these for it, and on finding effective solutions considering teaching to be the key to change structural tendency to exclude many of students who wish to be enrolled. Experiences gained by means of the Learning Support Program PROGRESA offered by the University of the Republic (UdelaR), Uruguay as an institutional endeavor to assist students throughout their academic years are presented
