This thesis aimed to investigate whether the ProUni, while Public Policy on Access to Higher Education, enabled better insertion in the labor market, as well as improvements in the socioeconomic status of their graduates. The reference used it is theoretical discussion on the themes: youth, work and education. We seek to understand the problems of the study, using as reference the following authors: Marcio Pochmann, Jose Pastore, José Dias Sobrinho, Maria Carla Corrochano, Gaudencio Frigotto, Antonio Chizzotti, Geraldo Romanelli, Pierre Naville, George Friedmann, among others. The ProUni is constituted as a public educational policy that attends mostly to youth, and arises in the context of the need to expand access to higher education. In this thesis it was used the qualitative research, which developed a process marked by reflections in the construction of knowledge, and the collection of data obtained through electronic questionnaires and interviews. The study subjects were young people who have completed graduation by ProUni in Higher Education Institutions located in the capital of São Paulo State, Brazil. To the graduates of ProUni, attend a graduation represented new perspectives for enhancing knowledge, social relations, professional training opportunities, access to the labor market and social mobility. The access to educational levels, from elementary education up to the college level, alone, are not sufficient to ensure social mobility, but without access to education, certainly makes more difficult the social evolution of these young people in the Brazilian social scale
