Summary: Education has been recognized throughout the world as a universal right, and as such, it must be guaranteed by each state. In higher education, the gap in access and treatment of the diversity of the student population is still very marked. Ecuador does not escape this reality, the diversity in its population has raised the bar in the extinction of exclusion mech-anisms in the educational area. The objective of this review is to summarize what is related to discrimination in Ecuadorian higher education, especially third level students. For which discrimination for reasons of gender, economic and national legislation will be developed in favor of free discrimination to students of higher education. The research was carried out under a bibliographic documentary type methodology, under the review modality. The review shows that Ecuador is a country with marked inequality in access and discriminatory treatment of higher education students, especially for gender and economic reasons. However, great achievements have been made in terms of legislation and programs that offer new forms of management that allow or guarantee equality and non-discrimination of the different groups that try to access and remain in these institutions. One of these radical changes for the third level of higher education is the admission process to public and private universities in the country for this year, which will no longer be carried out through national tests as in previous years, but instead now each educational institution will have its own admission process. It remains for the state to monitor that all this procedure is framed in transparency, efficiency and ethics, therefore, that the criteria of equality and non-discrimination are met. Likewise, it is expected that the legal instruments not only remain on paper, but that they are complied with in favor of educational inclusion and against discrimination.
