The new site, available at hawaii.edu\/transfer<\/a>, brings together critical information and resources in one easy-to-use platform. Whether students are actively planning to transfer or simply exploring program options, the site offers clear guidance, interactive tools and real advice from fellow transfer students.<\/p>\n

“Ensuring seamless transfer across the UH<\/abbr> System is a critical priority and I commend the work of the Academic Advising and Transfer Network (AATN<\/abbr>) group for revitalizing this critical resource,” said Debora Halbert, UH<\/abbr> vice president for academic strategy.<\/p>\n

Transfer students are a core component of the UH<\/abbr> student body and UH<\/abbr> System mission, with 2,314 transfer students matriculating into 4-year campuses in the fall 2024 semester, 48% of whom arrived from another UH<\/abbr> campus.<\/p>\n

Students will find information on the steps to transfer within the UH<\/abbr> System, from two-year to four-year institutions and vice versa. The site also includes details about academic advising, tuition and costs, and links to the UH<\/abbr> Transfer Database Tool, which helps students understand how their credits will transfer between campuses.<\/p>\n

The launch of the new portal is part of a broader initiative involving the Office of the Vice President for Academic Strategy<\/a>, AATN<\/abbr><\/a> and UH<\/abbr> Information and Technology Services<\/a>, intended to enhance the transfer experience and empower students to be the navigators of their own academic journeys.<\/p>\n

It also supports President Wendy Hensel\u2019s vision to ensure a common “baseline standard of care” for all UH<\/abbr> students, and the university\u2019s ongoing commitment to student success, equity and seamless academic mobility.<\/p>\n
