In Vicente Tinto´s view, (1987) “…Although students dropped out and some of them attribute abandon reasons to the financial difficulties, these statements spread to mask but to reveal the basic reasons of desertion ” Some of these reasons were reflected in the result of the study where it was found that 50% of this population complains about having low economic resources which affect their learning process, since they do not only come from San Salvador, but also, from other departments of the country.es-SVSocio-economical indicators420Thesis
