How will Upward Bound help me get into college?
Your UB Counselor will guide you through a series of activities designed to help you acknowledge your academic, personal and career strengths. You will have many opportunities to visit colleges: small, large; urban, suburban, rural; private, public; 2-year, 4-year. These visits will help you explore where you feel most comfortable.
