Upward Bound
Apply Now
 The SSC Upward Bound Program accepts applications from target students throughout the year. Potential students must complete an Eligibility Profile and UB Program staff will contact all students who meet the criteria. If you qualify, you'll then need to submit the application.
Typically the program recruits students in Grade 9 during the fall term, and graduated Grade 9 students during the spring term. Students in Grades 11 and 12 are not eligible.
Eligibility Criteria
All students served must be between the ages of 13 and 19, enrolled in the Lawrence Public Schools at the time of acceptance into the program, and in need of academic services as evidenced by failing MCAS scores and/or a below 2.5 GPA.
Fill-out & submit this form to see if you qualify for the UB program.
