TRIO Upward Bound is the flagship U.S. Department of Education pre-college program designed to assist potential future college students who are low-income, first-generation, or at high risk for academic failure in pursuing and completing postsecondary education. The word TRIO was used by the federal government in the late 1960s for the three original educational opportunity programs: Upward Bound; Student Support Services; and Educational Talent Search. Six additional programs were added by 1998, totaling nine TRIO programs. This qualitative research study examined the impact of TRIO Upward Bound participation length and level on participants' high school completion, college enrollment and success, civic participation, and citizenship practices. The study results revealed that former students found TRIO Upward Bound to be an effective program that not only helped them with the academic and social skills necessary to graduate from high school and complete postsecondary education, but also led to civic engagement and good citizenship practices, such as voting, paying taxes, abiding by the law, postponing parenthood, employment, and community service. In addition, I found that students who remained in the program the longest, completed the Bridge Program (the second level and final phase of the program), and officially graduated from TRIO Upward Bound obtained their Bachelor and Associate degrees at much higher rates than those with less program participation length and level. They also received the highest level of program benefits, which included the bachelor's degree and full time employment.
