Who is entitled to the Becas Benito Juárez benefit?
The Becas Benito Juárez program was created to ensure that children, adolescents and young people in situations of economic vulnerability can study with greater peace of mind. The main criterion is family income: families enrolled in the Single Registry of Social Programs and with children enrolled in public schools have priority. It doesn't matter if you live in a rural, urban or indigenous area: eligibility is defined by social and income criteria, in addition to the student's active enrollment.
The main groups served are:
- Basic education students (pre-school, primary and secondary) from public schools;
- High school (preparatory) and college (university) students from low-income backgrounds;
- Indigenous or Afro-Mexican families, or those living in priority areas;
- People registered in federal social programs.
Remember that you don't have to be a beneficiary of other aid to take part. However, the system cross-checks data to avoid duplicate payments and ensure that the aid reaches those who really need it.
