RESUMO

Research studies on racial inequality developed in Brazil have indicated, aong other exclusion fields, the low presence of afro-descendent Brazilians in college education. Departing from this evidence, affiramtive action aiming to facilitating access of black students ("pretos" or "pardos") in higher education has been implemented in several Brazilian federal universities. At the Federal University of Juiz de Fora (UFJF) this policy was initiated in 2006. Using data made available by UFJF administration, this study has identified both equality and inequality situations concerning both candidates and accepted students according to their self-declared skin color. The results have showed inequalities among color groups concerning both their socio-economic profiles and access groups, showing how Brazilian-style racial discrimination works
