Secondary students across Mexico are gearing up to receive their payments for the Beca Rita Cetina 2025 program this March. Beneficiaries of the program, which aims to combat school dropout rates, are particularly excited as those who did not receive their January payment due to not having the Tarjeta del Bienestar will receive double payments this month. This totals 3,800 pesos, covering the first two bimesters of the year.
The Beca Rita Cetina program allocates 1,900 pesos bimonthly to secondary school students, offering much-needed financial assistance for families. The funds are exclusively transferred via the Tarjeta del Bienestar, ensuring only eligible students benefit. “El acumulado será por un total de tres mil 800 pesos, lo que cubre los dos primeros bimestres del año,” according to government statements.
Students who either did not receive their cards or were unable to access their benefits earlier this year can now expect to receive these funds as the government continues to disperse payments. The initiative is part of the Mexican government’s commitment to maintaining high school enrollment rates and providing financial support to underprivileged families.
Already, several states have confirmed they have started making these payments. States where funds have been deposited include Chiapas, Estado de México, Jalisco, Michoacán, Oaxaca, Sonora, Veracruz, and more. The government assures students and parents alike to remain vigilant, as payments are scheduled to be fully dispersed by March 28, 2025, following the timelines set by the Secretaría de Educación Pública (Education Ministry).
For students who are yet to receive their Tarjeta del Bienestar, it’s important to acquire this card to receive all possible support. Required documents for the application include the student’s birth certificate, their CURP (National Population Registry Code), official identification of the parent or guardian, and proof of address not older than three months. Numerous locations throughout the country are available for students to pick up their cards.
Students and parents can check if their stipulated funds have been deposited by checking their balance at Banco del Bienestar ATMs, using the mobile banking app, or visiting the nearest bank branch. The necessity of ensuring the accessibility of these funds has been emphasized, as the payment process is only successful if the recipients have the correct card to facilitate the transaction. “El pago se está realizando únicamente a través de la Tarjeta del Bienestar,” confirms official government sources.
It’s also worthy of note for those awaiting funds to regularly check the announcements from the Secretaría de Educación Pública and the Becas para el Bienestar Benito Juárez program for any updates. The Beca Rita Cetina aims to assist thousands of students across the country, supporting their continuing education and mitigating dropout risks.
While benefits may be accumulating for some, the focus remains on the importance of steady communication from the government to the beneficiaries. Every student can play their part by ensuring they are aware of their benefit eligibility and maintaining access to the necessary documents required to continue receiving funds.
With the timely delivery of these payments, the expectations are high for the secondary students who rely on this assistance. Maintaining their education is the primary goal aimed at shaping their futures, and the Beca Rita Cetina serves as a pivotal support system.
