Ciudad Juárez Launches 2025 Educational Scholarships

The city offers financial aid to preschool and primary students to support their education needs.

The Ciudad Juárez Municipal Government has launched the First Call for Social Equity Scholarships 2025, exclusively targeting preschool and primary school students. This initiative aims to provide financial assistance of 1,500 pesos to support eligible families, and registration is set for January 23 and 24.

According to the city officials, this program is established to assist students from vulnerable backgrounds who may need additional support to continue their education. Officially, the call for applications is open through the online platform here. This year, the process has been streamlined to make it easier for families to apply.

Guillermo Enrique Alvídrez, the Director of Education, stated, "Los interesados deben ingresar a la página https://juarez.gob.mx/educacion-becas. Quienes sean nuevos aspirantes deben registrarse." This simple yet effective approach allows parents to submit applications quickly without the need to stand in long lines.

The registration period will only last for two days, from 8:30 AM until all available scholarships are filled. New applicants must create their profiles, whereas returning applicants have to activate their existing folios. Families should submit their documents electronically, adhering to specific guidelines to prevent issues during the approval process.

For those who prefer traditional methods, physical document submission is also available at designated locations on specified dates. The Municipal Government encourages families to take advantage of the online registration system to simplify the application process.

To successfully register for the scholarship, there are several required documents for both parents and students. Parents must provide the following information: valid identification (like INE), Clave Única de Registro de Población (CURP), income statement showing monthly earnings not exceeding 9,500 pesos, and proof of residency, among others. On the student's side, eligibility requires the submission of the child’s birth certificate, CURP, and report cards confirming satisfactory academic performance (minimum average of 7.0) from public schools.

The scholarship is intended to ease the financial burden on families and encourage educational attendance and performance among children. It is important to note, as learned from previous programs, each child will only be eligible for one scholarship per academic year, ensuring the support is distributed fairly.

Registration opens on January 23, allowing adequate time for families to prepare. Parents are urged to visit the official website as soon as possible. Conveying urgency, the Municipal Government is committed to ensuring equitable access to education support for all students within the municipality, reflecting on the importance of preparing young citizens for future success.

For any queries or assistance, interested families can contact the local education office via telephone at 656-689-9011 during the working hours of 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM. This initiative is not just about aiding financially but also about nurturing the potential of future generations. Given these opportunities, Ciudad Juárez aims to uplift the educational prospects of its youth sequentially.
