Access and retention in college does not offer, today, the same opportunities to all citizens who are able to pursue higher education. Economic, cultural, social or gender reasons meaningfully punish certain groups, who see less chance of achievement and personal and social development.

The present contribution complements other already published previously (http://goo.gl/LdkuoZ), contains a synthetic way guidance and resources to plan and manage the intervention with vulnerable groups in college. Organized by pamphlets containing, first, some general guidance on the processes of change and how they can afford; on the other, provides eight different booklets specific guidance and strategies for intervention with more collective in the universities: unusual indigenous people, women, the disabled, minorities, rural students, immigrants and collective a Human Development Index (HDI) very low.

It is, in short, to support the development of a university whose mission and objectives are aimed at promoting the inclusion of all students, and especially those who are in a vulnerable position and can bring out the ability or inability of the university system to achieve a balance between quality and equity.
