Rollins Upward Bound Program

WHAT IS UPWARD BOUND?
The Rollins College Upward Bound program is a year-round program for motivated students with academic potential who desire additional academic preparation, advisement, and encouragement to succeed in high school and later, in college. Because Upward Bound is a federally funded TRIO program, there is no cost to participate. Eligible students must be either low income, as defined by federal guidelines, or the first generation in their household to attain a four-year college degree. Please see our application page for full details.
