First-year higher education students show their frustrations and hopes during a devastating pandemic within the framework of a qualitative research carried out in 2020.

Between individualistic withdrawals and social vocations, they draw aspirations and expectations that, under the current conditions, cannot be easily dissociated from powerful and unprecedented uncertainties.
