description ABSTRACT: Academic dropout is described as the permanent abandonment of classrooms and the lack of continuity in education. The overall goal of the present study was to identify the main causes leading to academic dropout among students enrolled in the Universidad de Antioquia School of Dentistry between 2004 and 2014. Methods: a descriptive and retrospective study including quantitative and qualitative techniques based on an individual survey to 16 dropouts and 18 reentry students, who voluntarily responded their respective surveys; descriptive statistics was conducted using version 23 of the IBM-SPSS software, and qualitative methods were used to analyze the categories found in the informal questions. Results: dropout was due in 37.5% of cases to academic difficulties, 31.3% to academic program change, 18.8% to economic or work-related reasons, 6.2% to relocation to another city, and 6.2% of participants did not respond. The reasons why reentry students fail courses include academic difficulties (38.9%), work-related reasons (27.8%), and physical or mental health, such as lack of self-esteem (33.3%). The students’ opinion on the education received while enrolled in the School of Dentistry was excellent by 50%, good by 43.8% and poor by 6.3%. Conclusions: academic dropout in higher education is a complex, personal, family, institutional, and social phenomenon. But the most important thing for the School of Dentistry and Universidad de Antioquia as a whole is to think of diverse strategies to ensure student retention.

El objetivo general del presente estudio consistió en identificar las principales causas de la deserción académica de los estudiantes que ingresaron a la Facultad de Odontología de la Universidad de Antioquia entre 2004 y 2014. Métodos: estudio descriptivo y retrospectivo con técnicas cuantitativas y cualitativas basado en una encuesta individual a 16 estudiantes de deserción y a 18 estudiantes de reingreso, quienes voluntariamente respondieron sus respectivas encuestas; para ello se utilizó estadística descriptiva con el programa IBM-SPSS versión 23, y por métodos cualitativos se analizaron las categorías encontradas en las preguntas no estructuradas. Resultados: la cancelación del semestre de los desertores obedeció en el 37,5% de los casos a las dificultades académicas, el 31,3% se dio por cambio de programa, el 18,8% por razones económicas o motivos laborales, el 6,2% por traslado a otra ciudad y el 6,2% no respondieron. Las razones por las cuales los estudiantes de reingreso perdieron los cursos son: el 38,9% por dificultades académicas, el 27,8% por motivos laborales y el 33,3% por razones de salud física o mental (falta de autoestima). La opinión sobre la formación recibida durante su permanencia en la facultad fue excelente para el 50%, buena para el 43,8% y regular para el 6,3%. Conclusiones: la deserción estudiantil en la educación superior es un fenómeno complejo, personal, familiar, institucional y social. Pero lo más importante para la Facultad de Odontología y para la Universidad de Antioquia en general es pensar diversas estrategias que les garanticen a los estudiantes la permanencia en la universidad.application/pdfspaUniversidad de Antioquia, Facultad de OdontologíaMedellín, Colombiahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/co/Atribución-NoComercial-CompartirIgual 2.5 Colombia (CC BY-NC-SA 2.5 CO)info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesshttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2Deserción universitariaAspectos socialesUniversidad de Antioquia.
