The 8th grade students learned about the Upward Bound program this week. This program at WVU works with students from Preston High School and is a college access program, with standardized objectives designed to assist students in being successful in high school, enrolling in college, and graduating from college with a bachelor’s degree.
Students must be the first in their families to go to college (neither parent has a bachelor’s degree) and/or income-eligible (household income is at or below 150% of the poverty level). Students are eligible if they meet one or both of these criteria. If you would like to apply, you may go to this link: https://upwardbound.wvu.edu/apply or students can fill in the application attached and turn it into their School Counselor, Mrs. Durst. Our priority deadline for this recruitment cycle is Friday, March 26, 2021.
