Prospective students, their families and the general public are invited to a free virtual open house, the M\u0101noa Experience<\/a>, on Saturday, January 23, 9 a.m.–1 p.m. The event will introduce thousands of prospective and accepted students and their families to the University of Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span> at M\u0101noa campus. Attendees include high school students, transfer students, in-state and out-of-state prospects, educators and other guests. <\/p>\n

UH<\/abbr> M\u0101noa is consistently ranked among the top 2% globally by major international rankings and is almost $3,000 below the national average for in-state tuition for a public university. <\/p>\n

Participants will have the opportunity to meet with engaging faculty, staff and students from academic programs and student services, as well as attend virtual workshops to help prepare for college. Prospective students can visit the Admissions Virtual Front Desk to check on their application status and have their questions answered. Virtual tours highlighting the campus, residence halls and learning facilities will also be available. <\/p>\n

“This is a great chance for prospective and admitted students and their parents to engage with staff and faculty about programs they are interested in or to learn about programs and opportunities they may not know exist,” said UH<\/abbr> M\u0101noa Associate Director of Admissions Abigail Huliganga-Hurgo<\/strong>. “Even though we are virtual this year, we look forward to seeing everyone in-person at the M\u0101noa Experience in 2022.”<\/p>\n

M\u0101noa Experience attendees are encouraged to register in advance, and registration is required for students to receive exclusive UH<\/abbr> M\u0101noa digital swag and coupons to the UH<\/abbr> Bookstore. <\/p>\n
