Thanks to the affordability of the 10-campus UH System, Hawaiʻi is ranked ninth in the nation when it comes to low student debt, according to the latest annual report by The Institute for College Access and Success.
The Hawaiʻi State Department of Education is partnering with Hawaiʻi P–20 and the University of Hawaiʻi to promote a campaign to help make college more affordable for students.
Almost 1,000 students from the University of Hawaiʻi’s seven community colleges have been awarded Hawaiʻi Promise scholarships for the 2017 fall semester.
New initiatives by the UH Mānoa Office of Admissions are being credited for the significant increase in applicants and in a number of other categories.
