The UB staff seeks to build a robust working relationship with each student and their parent(s)/legal guardians, so it is essential to strongly consider the program’s purpose, academic services, time commitments for the school year and summer program, and the importance of open communication. In committing to the program, students must attend and actively participate in all mandatory sessions, to include Saturday classes, and turn in all required documentation by established deadlines. The parent(s)/legal guardians are required to participate in Financial-Aid and Financial Literacy workshops. Moreover, students must exhibit appropriate behavior at all UB events and respect UB staff, peers, tutors, and themselves at all times. Students and parents will sign a contract pledging their agreement to uphold UB standards upon entering the program.
