2016 Upward Bound Applications

Wittenberg's Upward Bound Programs Accepting Applications for 2016

六合彩网上投注app鈥檚 TRIO Upward Bound Program is currently accepting applications for new students.

Upward Bound works to stimulate interest in college among students of low-income families or families in which there is little history of college study. The program provides role models of college-educated students and academic assistance to prepare participants for the challenge of study beyond high school.

Students requesting an application must be entering the ninth, 10th or 11th grades and live within the City of Springfield and the Springfield City School District.

During the school year, students are in weekly contact with Upward Bound staff members, including teachers and tutor-counselors, through classes, home visits, counseling sessions and tutorials. During the summer, students live on Wittenberg鈥檚 campus for six weeks and participate in a variety of academic, cultural and social activities. After graduating from high school, students attend the summer 鈥淏ridge鈥 program, where they are given the opportunity to earn eight college credits from Wittenberg.

To request an application, contact Assistant Director Phyllis Swanigan at (937) 327-7535 or pswanigan@wittenberg.edu. For more information, visit Wittenberg鈥檚 Upward Bound website at .
