description The paper evaluates the higher education labor market insertion. It was showed that the return to higher education in Brazil is high and it has increased in the last decade. The return also shows to be high even taking into account people without a typical job for higher education. The high return to higher education seems inconsistent with its low attainment, since more than a halfof high school graduated do not go to college. This fact points to existence of barriers to access, like imperfection in credit market, and the need to reform the system. The parcel of people with higher education in a typical job is low and it has decreased in the last years, this can be an indication of an unbalance between traditional college degree and occupation in the labor market. However, it was showed that earnings is higher to people with a typical job.
