Welcome

Veterans Upward Bound exists to help veterans transition to college life. Veterans Upward Bound serves veterans of Northwest and Central Arkansas who desire to enter and succeed in a program of post-secondary education. If you are a veteran with at least 180 days of active duty service and would like to academically and mentally prepare for a university, community college or vocational school program, please call us for more information. We have refresher courses to prepare for College Algebra and English Composition, and other classes such as computer and Spanish classes. We also assist with financial aid applications, college applications, entrance exam preparation and much more. All our services are FREE. We are funded by the US Department of Education and are hosted by the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville.
