Upward Scholars is the only nonprofit in the Bay Area providing financial, academic, career development, and holistic support to adult immigrants from low-income backgrounds transitioning from adult schools to community colleges. Through continued education and our support, students move from low-wage occupations into middle-wage occupations, start their own businesses, earn certificates in areas such as medical assisting or bookkeeping, or earn associate degrees and transfer to four-year universities.
