Summer Program

Each summer participants earn their way to participate in the six-week Upward Bound Summer Component. College classes are taken for credit, a variety of workshops are provided, and educational/cultural trips are experienced.

Participants are able to live in apartments with other U.B. roommates and learn to shop for groceries, live within a budget (all resources provided by UBSC), and manage their time.  Learning these skills will help them have a college experience that will prepare them to succeed once they leave the program and enter into higher education.

Students are involved in evening activities that include sports, crafts, speakers, group sports, and field trips. There are study hall hours where Resident Assistants (RAs) will provide academic help.

All Upward Bound summer students are given passes to the Snow College Activity Center and have access to basketball, tennis, volleyball, and racquetball courts along with a swimming pool. Evening activities include: team sports, bowling, hiking, etc.
