This research is intended to understand the effects of the Articulation Policy between upper secondary and higher education in Bogota. The study approached several perspectives about the process of decision makers in the City Education Office, and those of the Articulation Coordinators in the higher education institutions and in the schools. In addition to that, the project developed three case studies in order to understand the implementation process and its effects on students. Based on the findings, we determined that this policy was irrational and confused the problem of lack of identity of the upper secondary education with the scarce access to higher education. Likewise, the Articulation has promoted different cooperative and conflictive interactions at schools, and a training of the students for the social experience in higher education. However, it has not achieved an increase in higher education opportunities for these students.
