Abstract: This paper proposes a sensitivity analysis to analyze the relationship between edu-cation and wages. For different policies that increase the proportion of university graduates, we derive bounds for the quantiles of the counterfactual distribution of wages. We then use these bounds to quantify the robustness of various conclusions of interest. Our empirical analysis suggests that an education policy targeting indi-viduals in the lower quantiles of the wage distribution can contribute to reducing inequality even in the presence of considerable selection bias
