This summer of 2023 Upward Bound will bring approximately 100 high school students that qualify as low-income and first-generation college-bound high school students to Cornell University for six weeks of academic, co-curricular and extracurricular activities, intended to grow their knowledge and understanding of what it takes to be successful in college while preparing for their next year in high school. Upward Bound is grant funded by the Federal Department of Education’s TRIO Programs. The Mentor is the primary facilitator of the participant experience during the Upward Bound Summer program. You will have the unique opportunity to impact and change lives as an Upward Bound Summer Youth Mentor.
