Gaining Early Awareness and Readiness for Undergraduate Programs (GEAR UP) provides grants to states and college-school partnerships to support students in high-poverty schools in preparing for and accessing postsecondary education, beginning in 7th grade. Services include tutoring, mentoring, college visits, academic support, financial literacy education, and college application assistance that continue with the student cohort through high school graduation. Many state GEAR UP programs also offer college scholarships to participating students.
