To be eligible for services, students must be low-income, first-generation to enter college, and attend one of the program’s six target schools – the Accelerated Learning Laboratory, Doherty Memorial High School, South Community High School, North Community High School, Burncoat High School, and University Park Campus School.

Program services are provided through two distinct components, the Academic Year and the Summer Component. During the Academic Year Component, students receive academic support services via tutorials, academic counseling, college exploration, admission and financial aid assistance. Students meet after school and on Saturday mornings at Clark University. The Summer Component is a five-week academic enrichment program that is held on the Clark University campus. Students are allowed to reside in Clark University dormitory rooms, take courses in Clark University classrooms, and participate in an internship/work study for twelve-hours per week.

The Bruce Wells Scholars Upward Bound Program is federally funded by the U.S. Department of Education. The program is a collaboration between Y.O.U., Inc., Clark University, and the Worcester Public School Department. The program is designed for low-income, first-generation high school students with academic potential, who are college bound, and are at risk of not successfully transitioning to college. The goal is to promote access and opportunity for these students, and successfully complete their Bachelors degree from an accredited college or university. To print, click here.
