Welcome to Upward Bound
UB Director
Dr. McDade
The mission of the TRIO Upward Bound Program at the University of Florida is to prepare students to be successful in postsecondary education and in life, and to contribute productively to our society.
Our program serves students from low-income households who will be first-generation college graduates. The Upward Bound Program grew out of the Great Society's War on Poverty in the 1960s. Thousands of participants in the University of Florida Upward Bound program have earned college degrees since UB was established at UF in 1971.
