Hawai’i guarantees UH college admission for senior students: Here’s how it could boost enrolment
Hawai’i has launched Direct2UH, a programme guaranteeing admission to UH community colleges for DOE seniors and to UH West O’ahu and UH Hilo for students with a 2.7 GPA or higher. The initiative simplifies applications, highlights FAFSA and Hawai’i PROMISE scholarships, and provides workshops to guide students. While it aims to boost college enrolment and streamline transfers to four-year campuses, ongoing support for financial aid and academic advising remains essential, according to educators and administrators.
