Nowadays, technologies are a determining and ever-present element in Higher Education, even with their rise, the digital divide is also an aspect to be considered, so we could ask ourselves: What are the digital gaps that Higher Education faces? This article offers a critical review of the state-of-the-art on the digital gap in Higher Education. To do so, an exhaustive search was carried out for information related to the background on the subject that would allow for a reflection and critique of the content through the hermeneutic method seen from the methodology of the Cultivation and Breeding of Wisdom and Knowledge (CCRISAC). Categories such as access, knowledge, technological infrastructure, use, teachers' curricular component, and digital skills were analyzed. As a result of the search, it is concluded that the digital gap is closely related to factors such as economic resources, geographic location, technological skills of teachers, technological infrastructure, as well as the lack of a government policy for the insertion of technology in the curricula.
