Purpose of Program: The Upward Bound (UB) Program is one of the seven programs known as the Federal TRIO Programs. The UB Program is a discretionary grant program that supports projects designed to provide students with the skills and motivation necessary to complete a program of secondary education and to enter into, and succeed in, a program of postsecondary education. There are three types of grants under the UB Program: UB; Veterans UB; and UB Math and Science (UBMS) grants.
In this notice we invite applications for UBMS grants only. The invitation to apply for UB grants has been announced and we will invite applications for Veterans UB grants in a forthcoming notice.
The UBMS Program supports projects designed to prepare high school students for postsecondary education programs that lead to careers in the fields of math and science.
UBMS grantees are required to provide the services listed in sections 402C(b) and (c) of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended (HEA) (20 U.S.C. 1070a-13). Grantees may also provide the permissible services in section 402C(d) of the HEA. UBMS Program grantees must also provide the services listed in 34 CFR 645.14(a) and may provide the services listed in 34 CFR 645.14(b).
