The University of Hawaiʻi’s 10 campuses are transitioning to a new and improved student information dashboard beginning in the spring 2026 semester. The new system will offer students a more modern, mobile-friendly experience.
Transition timeline
MyUH and STAR GPS will go offline at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday, December 11, 2025, as UH begins the upgrade. STAR GPS will be view-only during this time. The new dashboard is scheduled to launch on January 3, 2026.
Tuition and registration details
When registration opens on Monday, November 10 (November 17 for UH Mānoa), students will continue to use STAR GPS; however, tuition and fee balances for spring 2026 will not be displayed during this period.
Balances will reappear when the new system goes live on January 3, 2026, along with updated payment plan options related to the temporary grace period for registration holds announced on November 4. Students can estimate their tuition costs by visiting this website. Tuition, fees and other payments for spring 2026 cannot be made until the new system is live in January.
