\"Campus<\/p>\n

The University of Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span> at Mānoa<\/a> has been identified as one of the nation’s “most beautiful, yet affordable” college campuses in 2019<\/a>, according to Affordable Schools, a leading higher education resource.<\/p>\n

UH<\/abbr> Mānoa is number eight among the top 30 colleges to make the rating, with Affordable Schools comparing more than 2,700 bachelor degree granting institutions in the U.S.<\/abbr><\/p>\n

“Although the architecture resembles nothing like the collegiate style of ivy-colored institutions on the mainland, it boasts a beauty all its own,” said the accompanying write-up. “The school is home to Lyon Arboretum<\/a>, the only university tropical arboretum in the country. A valuable resource for the university’s College of Tropical Agriculture<\/a>, Lyon Arboretum showcases Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span>’s bromeliads, gingers and palms. The 320-acre urban campus provides views of Honolulu, expansive blue ocean and lush Mānoa Valley. The school campus also boasts an open Thai pavilion and a Japanese garden featuring a teahouse and a koi pond<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

In 2018, UH<\/abbr> Mānoa was also named one of the most beautiful university campuses in the nation by College Magazine<\/a>, and the Arbor Day Foundation designated it a Tree Campus USA for a 10th straight year<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The flagship of the 10-campus UH<\/abbr> System<\/a> regularly places on national and international rankings of colleges and universities for academics and research. See more at the Mānoa Institutional Research Office website<\/a>.<\/p>\n
