What is Level Up?
Level Up is a supportive readiness program that helps to prepare students for college-level Math and English coursework. The primary goal of Level Up is to have more college students begin with fewer pre-college level requirements, and therefore, a much better chance of college success. This program aims to prepare students for college-level coursework in a college environment.
