Kapiʻolani Community College does not provide on campus health services. Students from KCC may use the services at University Health Services Mānoa (UHSM) with a surcharge (currently $25) on the first visit, and another $25 on the second visit of each semester, after which they are eligible to the same services at the same charges as regular UH Mānoa students. KCC is unable, at this time, to finance the high operating and maintenance costs of an on site health clinic. Also, because KCC is a commuter campus, there is little demand for on site services.
