    ¿Cuáles son los factores que influyen en que un estudiante de educación superior abandone sus estudios universitarios en Colombia y en los países latinoamericanos?
    Lopez-Peña, Carlos Daniel; Moreno-Cruz, Manuel Fernando; Aguirre Muñoz, Briggitte Andrea
    Our degree work aims to identify the factors that influence Colombian and Latin American higher education students when deciding to abandon their studies. Because this issue is quite worrying not only in Colombia but in many Latin countries where many people enter a higher education institution but do not complete their university studies, it is essential to identify the variables that students face to make this decision. To determine the university dropout factors, a bibliographic review was carried out taking into account different documents such as articles from scientific journals, web links such as Min Educación and SPADIES, reports from government entities, among others. Thanks to this, we obtained information on what is observed in each Latin country and the Colombian region. We present the factors by reviewing the studies of each author and comparing the influencing factors in Colombia concerning Latin America. In conclusion, we can affirm that the economic factor is relevant when the university student decides to abandon their studies. This occurs not only in Colombia but also in Latin America. The reason we attribute to this is that higher education is expensive and beyond enrollment, living expenses must be taken into account while studying, so then, many people do not have the income to complete their degree. The reason we attribute to this is that higher education is expensive and more than the tuition itself, living expenses must be taken into account while studying, so then, many people do not have the income to complete their degree
