''Women's returns to education in Mexico: a revisit 30 years after''
( 2025, Vol. 0 No.0 )
 
 
Correcting for sample selection and endogeneity, we estimate the rate of return to education for women in Aguascalientes, Mexico. Our point estimate of 12.9% is similar to figures reported for Mexico 30 years ago, suggesting that investment in education remains as profitable now as it was three decades ago regardless the increment on average education from 6.5 to 9.6 schooling years that occurred since then.
