Abstract: The Department is

This application will be used to conduct

the UB Program. The UB Program
provides grants to institutions of higher
education, public and private agencies
and organizations, community-based
organizations with experience in serving
disadvantaged youth, combinations of
such institutions, agencies and
organizations, and secondary schools.
Upward Bound provides fundamental
support to participants in their
preparation for college entrance. The
program provides opportunities for
participants to succeed in their
precollege performance and ultimately
in their higher education pursuits.
Upward Bound serves: high school
students from low-income families; and
high school students from families in
which neither parent holds a bachelor’s
degree. The goal of Upward Bound is to
increase the rate at which participants
complete secondary education and
enroll in and graduate from institutions
of postsecondary education.
This discretionary grant falls under
the streamlined grant process, 1894–
0001, which waives the 60-day

3505(a)(2)).
This collection is being submitted
under the Streamlined Clearance
Process for Discretionary Grant
Information Collections (1894–0001).
Therefore, the 30-day public comment
