Visiting Students
Occasionally, a graduate program may wish to invite a student to undertake a prescribed course of study at UHM without
seeking a degree. The student must be in good academic standing and actively pursuing a graduate degree in a regionally accredited U.S. college or university,
or an equivalent degree in a recognized non-U.S. institution of higher
education. If granted, the visiting student status is generally limited
to a period of one year. Visitng students are generally not eligible for financial support from UHM. International visiting students must comply with certain enrollment regulations (See International Students < Enrollment Regulations).
In order to host a visiting student, the
graduate program shall have the student submit a completed Visiting Graduate Student Admissions Application to the Graduate Admissions Office. International visiting students are also required to show proof of sufficient funding.
A visiting student who subsequently decides to become
a degree-seeking graduate student at UHM needs to apply for graduate admission by following the admissions procedures
for prospective students (See link below).
Admission as a visiting student does not guarantee
subsequent admission as a degree-seeking graduate student.
Graduate programs interested in
inviting international visitors for the sole purpose of research
or training should contact the Office of International Education
for information.
