During the Upward Bound Summer Stay program, students will live on the campus of South East Louisiana University and will participate in academic and cultural programs designed to provide educational and cultural experiences. The program helps students to acquire critical thinking, scientific and analytical skills. Students have the opportunity to work in a variety of laboratory environments, have the opportunity to have practical computer experience, and have opportunities to acquire credits in university freshmen's math and science courses.
