Testimonials

Upward Bound is a program that is giving me more options and new experiences. It’s very important to me because it’s helping me achieve goals that I wouldn’t be able to accomplish due to my family’s low income.
Emily Castro
The University of Notre Dame – Upward Bound
Upward Bound has given me the skills to succeed not only through education but through life…I now enjoy the process of learning, studying, and most of all I now strive for excellence.
Julian Miller Indiana Wesleyan University
Upward Bound
One thing this program tells me is that there is someone out there that cares.
Phaechari Evans
Purdue University – Calumet‐Educational Talent Search
To stay competitive, Indiana needs to have more programs like this to get students on the right track and keep them there.
Sara Wines
Vincennes University – Upward Bound
TRiO programs give students a sense of hope when wondering how they are going to be able to pay for schooling. Student Support Services, the program I came to college through has helped me develop confidence within myself to succeed more.
Rick Owens
Indiana University – Group Student Support Services
I attended the Richard Lugar Symposium. I must tell you that experience has given me the confidence to pursue a career in government. Though you [Richard Lugar] are my inspiration, I thank Talent Search for getting me involved. Our country needs more of these programs to get the youth of America interested and involved in their communities.
Brenden Davidson
Vincennes University – Educational Talent Search
This program tells students to keep going when the world says quit.
Tom Walker III
Indiana University – Group Student Support Services
Without Upward Bound, I would still be in the dark about college and how to get there.
Mykia Stephens

Upward Bound and all of the other TRiO programs push students to be successful, bright young minds.
Jamar M. Buckley

Upward Bound has changed my whole perspective about careers… Losing this program is like being told I may never see my family again.
Rebecca S
The University of Notre Dame – Upward Bound
To stay competitive, Indiana needs to have more programs like this to get students on the right track and keep them there.
Sara Wines
Vincennes University – Upward Bound
There are many students on the streets trying to accomplish great goals, yet there are no building blocks to support them on their path. TRiO programs give students the building blocks, a mentor and support system.
Julia Cook‐Jones
Purdue University – Calumet‐ Upward Bound
I am so very thankful for these programs. I would not be able to do some of the things I have been able to do. My family has been hit extremely hard with illness…These programs help families like mine. Please keep this in mind when discussing budget cuts.

TRiO allows students to engage in productive and educational opportunities that promote individual growth.
Rudolpho Gonzalez
Indiana University – Purdue University Fort Wayne – Upward Bound
TRiO programs have been very supportive. TRiO has offered many services that have helped me such as tutoring, grant opportunities, TRiO conferences and group meetings.
Hannah Jordan
Indiana Tech –Student Support Services
Educational Talent Search is a truly beneficial program. If it has helped me so much, I can’t imagine how much it can help others. This program should be around for years to come to help other students, too.
Kristi Ashby
Vincennes University – Educational Talent Search
Without these programs I don’t think that I would be graduating in four years from college. Many students don’t have the same equal opportunities in college and keeping these programs will give college students a better chance to be successful.
