fellowship holder?
Explanation:
Graduate students & faculty hold fellowships for advanced study in a particular field. Undergraduate students get scholarships for tuition, books, etc. Anybody may have a grant (usually cash for study, travel, experiments, etc.) The translation would depend on the status of the "becarios". If they are mixed, I would say "scholarship and fellowship holders." If they are all grant winners, I would say "grantees."
