'My right, my place' 2026: This is how the registration will be for entering high school without an exam in CDMX and Edomex

The article discusses the upcoming registration process for high school in Mexico City and the State of Mexico, eliminating the traditional entrance exam through the 'My right, my place' program.

The article outlines the initiation of the registration process for high schools in the Mexico City Metropolitan Area under the program 'Mi derecho, mi lugar', which allows students to secure a place in secondary education without the need for an entrance exam. This program, now in its second year, was introduced to provide equitable access to educational opportunities for those completing middle school, thereby addressing issues of educational accessibility and regional disparities.

The registration will take place on a centralized online platform managed by the Espacio de Coordinación de la Educación Media Superior (ECOEMS), involving participation from various educational institutions including UNAM, IPN, Colegio de Bachilleres, and Conalep. Students will follow a multi-step process that includes online registration, choosing educational options, and assignment to schools based on their preferences and available spots. This system aims to streamline the transition to high school and reduce the anxiety associated with entrance exams.

As the upcoming academic year approaches, students are encouraged to prepare for this new registration process, which not only simplifies access to higher education but also sets a precedent for other regions in Mexico. The initiative seeks to foster an educational environment where access is determined by the needs and choices of students rather than their performance on standardized tests, potentially reshaping the future landscape of education in Mexico.
