Aloha! Congratulations on being admitted to Hawai‘i Pacific University.

We look forward to seeing you soon on campus at Hawai‘i Pacific University. Our location, our academics, and the experiences we offer are all one of a kind – just like you.

We’ll help you find the path that fits your passion, and we’ll make sure you pursue learning with confidence –in the classroom, throughout our vibrant city, and across our beautiful state of Hawai‘i.

We’ll take good care of you in your new home-awayfrom-home. Picture yourself, along with a few hundred of your new friends, at our candlelight opening ceremony under Aloha Tower, with a beautiful Hawaiian sunset across Honolulu Harbor.

So much more awaits you as you begin your journey at the Crossroads of the Pacific, on your way to becoming a world-ready Shark for life!

You’re going to love it!
