UPWARD BOUND – STILL LOOKING FOR FRESHMEN

Upward Bound is still accepting applications for their freshmen class. They are looking for low income, first generation students who are interested in college. This is a great program that helps the students succeed. They provide after school tutoring, college advising and it is a great program for students who need an extra little kick in the pants to get on the right track. As of today, they have recruited 10 students to this program and are looking to fill a class of 30. (c’mon lets not let Rubidoux and Patriot beat us with number of students enrolled) I have fliers that describe the program if you would like to distribute those in your class. If you know a student who is interested, please send them to the Career Center for an application. If you would like the Upward Bound team to do a presentation in your class please contact Anthony Muniz at Anthony.muniz@rcc.edu or (951) 222-8139.
