Resumo

This study aims to show the effects of nationality and gender of students on college expectations in its first year of higher education studies (ES). The sample consists of 759 students from various academic degrees from the Universities of Vigo, Campus of Ourense (Spain) and the University of Minho, Braga (Portugal). Participants were administered the Academic Perceptions Questionnaire (CPA) which assesses seven dimensions of expectations. The results obtained from 2x2 multivariate analysis [Nationality (2, Spanish, Portuguese) x gender (2; women and men)], show a significant interactive effect of both variables. The results are interpreted in the sense that the expectations of freshmen of ES vary significantly by nationality and gender.
