HPU is a great community! Everyone here is super nice and very helpful! We have many great teachers with great programs!!
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Just because its Hawaii does not mean that its going to be sunny all the time. It does rain here, and once you are used to the weather it does get a little cold. SO pack a couple pairs of pants and a couple sweaters!
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
Most of the classes are pretty straight forward. There can be a heavy workload once you get into the higher up classes but the majority of teachers are pretty laid back.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
The residence halls are great! Each building holds about 30 students and so we are a family away from home. Everyone looks out for one-another, and its mostly freshman. There are many activities going on each month to be involved with, and each individual hall does movie nights and stuff. The only downside is the campus with the residence halls is a little away from everything so you either need to take the shuttle, the bus, or have a car.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
The food here is great!! Sure, its not your moms home cooked meal, but its usually quite good. The only downside is there is limited hours that the cafeteria is open.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
Well its Hawaii!! You can go the beach, the park, go hiking, go clubbing, go shopping, see a movie, golf, bowling, ice skating. Plus tons more stuff to do. Don't let the fact that its an island make you think there is not much to do.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
The tuition is a lot, but you will never have a class over 25 students, and all the teachers are awesome, and they are truly invested in your future.
