In 1997, Universidad Veracruzana (University of Veracruz, in English) proposed a change in curricula, implementing the Integral and Flexible Educational Model (MEIF in Spanish) which pursues the autonomy of its students through an adequate decision making in the choice of educational experiences (EE) during their academic trajectory. In this context, Universidad Veracruzana launched the tutoring program as an important element for the MEIF, being relevant for their academic training and for a successful graduation. This study analyzes the perception of students of the Administration Degree, from both Veracruz and Xalapa Regions, regarding the operation of the tutoring program, in order to identify probable failures and, finally, to generate proposals and suggestions for improving for the students’ performance and reducing the dropout rate.

R was carried out in order to generate baseline information to guide the planning and design of a model of academic tutoring for the Universidad Autonoma Chapingo (UACh). The information was obtained through responses to open and closed questions and Likert-type questions in a self-administered questionnaire answered by a sample of 580 university students enrolled in the fourth and seventh year. The results indicate that tutoring at UACh has not yet been consolidated. Students agree that their parents be informed about their education and personal status at UACh; in order to decrease academic lagging behind, academic failure and low efficiency, they recommend counseling, mentoring and psychological counseling, among other suggestions. For the design, implementation, and operation of tutoring at UACh, the views of students as a reference guide as to the most efficient actions should be taken into account.
