Director's Welcome

It is our pleasure to assist low-income, first-generation high school students in achieving their aspirations of preparing for and succeeding in their post secondary educational pursuits. Upward Bound is a federally funded, year round program that provides academic and diversified developmental assistance to 170 eligible students annually. Please browse our website for information on eligibility requirements and program services. The Upward Bound Program is proud of its long history at UT El Paso and the services that it has provided and continues to provide to the youth of the El Paso region.

Sincerely,
