Mission Statement

Upward Bound is a college preparatory program that assists eligible participants to develop skills and motivation necessary for success in education beyond high school. The project helps students by providing counseling, tutoring, academic year and summer residential coursework, college preparatory activities and weekly academic year contact.

During the summer, 50 students in grades 9-12 participate in a six-week residential program on Linfield's Campus. The program includes classes, activities, tutoring, and cultural and social programming. There is also a camping experience and a number of field trips during the summer.
