“Upward Bound has helped me to understand the importance of college and how serious it is. The program opened my eyes to many opportunities and things that I didn’t know much about. With the help of the program, I was able to successfully apply and get accepted into colleges and start the next chapter of my life.”
Josh Chapman
“Upward Bound helped me choose the college of my choice! They prepared me for the real world and took me on tours. I was able to stay on campus and take some courses like sociology! I started my 8th grade year and I made so many connections. I strongly recommend the program for any high schooler!”
Derrick Gentry
“UC's Upward Bound allowed me to experience and gain an understanding of abilities I otherwise wouldn't have realized. I gained the courage to try new and challenging things because of Upward Bound, and the program will have a lasting impact on my family for generations to come!”
