The dissemination of Brazilian Sign Language by public institutions, such as universities, is supported by contemporary legislation that demands respect for deaf culture. In this context, the study aims to inventory the motivations stated by hearing female candidates registered for the selection of the Libras basic course, offered by a university extension project in 2016 and 2017. The theoretical framework came from authors of Inclusive Education such as Rossi (2010) and Soares (1999) and the Theory of Motivations such as Harter (1981) and Deci et al. (1991). The study used a secondary database and followed a mixed approach, using quantitative and qualitative data. The results indicate a variety of reasons expressed by the candidates, with a marked predominance of external motivations. The perception of Libras as a social, educational and labor market need shows the expansion of the inclusive discourse, which is beneficial to the construction of practices that welcome diversity.
