Pre-College/Bridge Programs

The Upward Bound Program provides academic instruction, tutoring and counseling for high school students who meet criteria which include low income and first generation. Counselors follow students’ progress in high school, and students learn about the college application process and how to apply for financial aid. During the summer, Upward Bound students live on the college campus and are involved in an intensive academic study program with an emphasis on English, mathematics, science, reading, writing and foreign language. Upward Bound’s residential program runs for six weeks during the summer.
