Abstract: This article systematizes primary data on health problems of FEA-RP/USP students in the period 2015-2019 from a database of the unit's Undergraduate Service. This systematization makes it possible to know the nature of the unit's health problems and design more effective educational management policies to deal with health problems. It can be concluded that: there is an increase in requests related to health problems; the composition of requests is in accordance with the composition by sex of the student body; student requests do not occur uniformly per course; mental health problems increase in importance towards the end of the period; requests for home problem sets are of increasing importance; total leave of absence requests have a decreasing importance in percentage terms; The reasons for total leave of absence vary in importance.
