GREAT NEWS in our most recent (2006-2007) Annual Performance Report!!!
Our "four to six years" figures are GREAT! Of students who graduated four to six years ago, EIGHTY PERCENT have
graduated or are still enrolled in school! Our "four to eight years" figures are
similar - 79% of you have graduated or are still enrolled. This is super fantastic in a target
area where fewer than 25% of adults (average for the three counties is about 16%) have four year college degrees, according to the 2000 Census!
From the UB performance report for 2006-2007: Fifty-seven students graduated from the program from 2001
to 2003. Of these, 25 (44%) have graduated from postsecondary institutions
[including] 19 from four-year institutions [and] 1 with a professional degree from a specialized health
college ... Twenty (36%) are still enrolled in postsecondary programs. Four to eight year graduates
(81 students from 1999 to 2003) have a 53% postsecondary graduation rate with 26% still enrolled."

"UB is definitely helping me prepare for
college because not only does it force me
to work hard in all of my college prep
classes, but it also supplies me
with the resources (tutors, college info)
to be successful. I know I need to
work hard in my classes and UB
gives me that extra boost to get
motivated and stay informed.
I absolutely love the workshops that
UB provides for us even though the
workload can be rather tedious.
I don't regret joining UB;
I have only gained knowledge from
my UB experience."
- Freda Fair, 2002 UB graduate, graduate of Macalester College
