Overview
- Education officials said the April disbursement totals 34,109 million pesos across three continuity programs for secondary, high school, and university students under the Becas para el Bienestar system.
- The Rita Cetina scholarship for secondary students is being paid from April 1 to 16 at 1,900 pesos per student plus 700 pesos for each additional child in the household, reaching about 8.2 million beneficiaries.
- Benito Juárez (high school) and Jóvenes Escribiendo el Futuro (university) deposits are slated for April 13 to 23, with 1,900 and 5,800 pesos per bimestre respectively, while the Gertrudis Bocanegra transport support in Michoacán runs through April 24.
- Authorities said deposits go straight to Banco del Bienestar cards without intermediaries, and some university students will receive two bimesters in one April deposit to clear delays caused by earlier school-data verification.
- President Claudia Sheinbaum announced a universal stipend for public primary students starting in August 2026 to help buy supplies and uniforms, with some outlets reporting 2,500 pesos per child while final program details are still pending.
