Overview: Upward Bound is a program for high-school students that is implemented for the use of being a stepping stone for children who are underdeveloped and helps children get more acclimated to college and ultimately gives them a better opportunity to succeed. In order to be apart of the Upward Bound program; students must first come from a family who doesn't have much and one who is significantly below the poverty line. One must also show academic need as well as income need in some way. Many students who are also granted access into the Upward Bound program are labeled as First Generation College Students; who are students that are the first in their family to attend college. This program is set in place for students who come from low income families as well as underrepresented schools and gives them an opportunity to excel in college.
