Results are based primarily in 29 interviews to students from vulnerable social backgrounds. The main findings show that in the elite university it dominates a declass experience as an integration strategy marked by denying social origins. In the academic and non-academic multi-class universities, the experiences are featured by social closure along with positive perception of social heterogeneity. In turn, in the academic multi-class university, high academic integration is expressed in their commitments and transformations of their study practices. Finally, at the lower-class university, there are precarious levels of social and academic integration despite the existing class identity among students.
