TRiO Upward Bound recognizes scholarship recipients

Classof2013-UBThe MN Daily featured TRiO Upward Bound’s annual “I Have a Dream Scholarship” ceremony, held last week at McNamara Alumni Center. Approximately 25 high school and college students from Minneapolis’ Edison, North, and South high schools received scholarships from the University of Minnesota Upward Bound program. Students are would-be, first-generation college students and qualify for up to $4,000 in scholarship money when they complete certain Upward Bound program requirements.
Upward Bound is one of three federally-funded, U.S. Department of Education TRiO programs in CEHD. View the 2013 Upward Bound retrospective video, featuring this year’s high school graduates and rising college freshmen.
