Abstract: This study analyzes the level of self-esteem of freshmen indigenous students in the Centro de Estudios Superiores del Estado de Sonora, Navojoa Academic Unit for the period 2008-2009. The program school educational model Focus on Learning and Skills Student, supported by the Institutional Program Tutorials and Indigenous Student Program, was analyzed. This program promotes positive behavior in students and assists them in the adjusting to college life. The research design was based on a non-experimental cross-section, using the Coopersmith Self-Esteem Inventory and the Social Support Questionnaire, supported on free distribution platform MOODLE. The instrument was applied to 95 students from a universe of 148, who were selected through a non-probability purposive sampling. The main results show that the self-esteem is low before the students take the workshop of social skills and significantly improves by program end.
