The bill would increase the maximum monthly stipends for students participating in Upward Bound projects under the Higher Education Act of 1965, raising them to $180, $900, and $120 per month for fiscal year 2027, depending on the type of stipend, and providing for annual inflation adjustments starting in fiscal year 2028. It also authorizes stipends of up to $300 per month for veterans in specially designed Upward Bound projects for fiscal year 2027.
