The Upward Bound Project at Arizona State University (ASU) is a federally funded college-preparatory program that serves high school students who are either low-income and/or who will be the first in their family to earn a four-year college degree. Upward Bound's mission at ASU is to assist students with graduating high school, entering college, and earning a Baccalaureate degree.
