A message from Corris Davis, Senior Director, Academic Opportunity Programs:

Were you a participant in a TRIO program (Upward Bound, Talent Search, Student Support Services, McNair Scholars, Veterans Upward Bound, or Educational Opportunity Centers)?
If so, and you now work or study at UMBC, we want to hear from you!

February 28, 2026 marks the 40th anniversary of National TRIO Day, and as part of our celebration of these transformational programs, we hope to build a network of TRIO alumni on the UMBC campus.

UMBC's Office of Academic Opportunity Programs (AOP) is gathering the names of UMBC faculty, staff, and graduate students who are TRIO alumni from across the country. Whether your journey began in high school or college, your story is proof that TRIO Works — and we want to celebrate it.
