In addition to technical knowledge, professional acting requires personal and social skills. The present work aimed to compare the social skills repertoire of college students on the beginning and at the end of the Psychology and Nursing courses in a brazillian public institution. One hundred thirty-nine college students answered an initial questionnaire and the Social Skills Inventory - IHS-Del-Prette. The results indicated correlation between the time spent on course and the amount of academic extra class activities and specific factors. Nursing students presented higher social skills than Psychology students. Students who participated in academic extra class activities, students who had already enrolled in other courses and women had higher specific social skills. We concluded that experiences such as practical courses activities, other courses admission and academic extra class activities participation, as well as gender roles, can affect the social skills development.
