The issue of truancy in undergraduate courses in Brazil is a chronic problem. Given the lack of teachers in the country to work in different areas, we seek to understand the reasons that lead to truancy through the analysis of this problem in undergraduate courses at the State University of West of Paraná Campus Cascavel. For this, we used the following research: questionnaires with open questions applied to escapees from different degree courses of that university; semi-structured interviews with coordinators and ex-coordinators of undergraduate analyzed; analysis of the existence of records pertaining to truancy in Political Pedagogical Project (PPP) of undergraduate courses. We found that most of the motivations for the courses studied truancy were linked to the issue of work and the implications of this for the academic life. A significant portion of the sample of dropouts and ex-coordinators and coordinators of the courses when asked about what measures could be taken to minimize dropout rates in the country mentioned factors directly related to institutional issues. As a way to overcome the problem of truancy and some of the difficulties pointed out by escapees, we emphasize the importance of offering student assistance in college.
