WVU Upward Bound

Your support is critical to help West Virginia University (WVU) Upward Bound (UB) go above and go beyond. We rely on passionate, loyal and caring members of the Mountaineer family, like you, to provide important opportunities for income-eligible high school students who will be the first in their families to pursue college. Your gift makes a direct impact for students and families in West Virginia.


Your support empowers WVU UB to create incredible opportunities, including …

  • Expanding scholarship opportunities for WVU UB students who matriculate to WVU as college students and have unmet financial need.
  • Providing educational and cultural trips for students, many of whom have not traveled outside of their home communities.
  • Paying for students to earn college credits while still in high school through dual-enrollment programs and on-campus courses.


When you make a gift—no matter the size—you help make an immediate impact for WVU Upward Bound. Your spirited generosity and devotion are greatly appreciated.
