The TRiO Programs are federally funded educational opportunity programs designed to motivate and support students from disadvantaged backgrounds. TRiO includes two Pre-Collegiate Programs. TRiO support programs are targeted to serve and assist low-income, first-generation students, and students with disabilities to progress through the academic pipeline from high school to postbaccalaureate programs.

UPWARD BOUND PROGRAM

Upward Bound provides fundamental support to participants in their preparation for college entrance. The program provides opportunities for participants to succeed in their precollege performance and ultimately in their higher education pursuits. Upward Bound serves: high school students from low-income families; high school students from families in which neither parent holds a bachelor's degree; and low-income, first-generation military veterans who are preparing to enter postsecondary education. The goal of Upward Bound is to increase the rate at which participants complete secondary education and enroll in and graduate from institutions of postsecondary education.
