dc.description Esse estudo analisa dados do vestibular da Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais de 2004, mediante um modelo de regressão não paramétrico, o Classification and Regression Trees. Seu objetivo foi identificar os principais fatores de aprovação e, também, verificar se esses fatores eram os mesmos para os cursos diurnos e noturnos. A resposta a essas questões permitiria verificar se a expansão do turno noturno feita por essa universidade vinha promovendo maior inserção social. Observou-se que, em geral, a conclusão do ensino médio em escolas públicas federais ou particulares, o conhecimento de língua estrangeira e o pertencimento a um grupo socioeconômico alto são fatores fortemente associados à aprovação do candidato. Verificou-se, ainda, que nos cursos noturnos as variáveis socioeconômicas têm maior relevância, enquanto nos cursos diurnos a formação do candidato adquire maior peso. Finalmente, o fator socioeconômico médio tende a ser maior para os candidatos aprovados.<br>This study analyses data from 2004 Federal University of Minas Gerais' general entrance examination, making use of a non-parametrical regression model: the Classification and Regression Trees. Its aims were to identify the main factors of college approval and, also, to verify if these factors were the same for both daytime and nighttime courses, in order to be able to affirm that the expansion of nighttime courses was promoting, in this university, a higher social insertion. In general, it was observed that the attendance to a federal or private high school, the knowledge of foreign languages and a higher socioeconomic status were factors strongly associated with candidates' approval. In nighttime courses, it was found that socioeconomics variables had a higher importance, while variables related to the quality of previous schooling had more weight in daytime courses. The average socioeconomic factor tended to be higher in the group of the approved candidates.
