Review of University of Hawaii at Manoa

from Lakewood, CO

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

How much you learn depends on what classes you are taking, what professor is teaching and how much you are studying. In college the classes don't go into as much detail as they did in High School. To make sure you learn all you need to know make sure to do your homework and readings for class.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

Hawaii is an amazing place. You can go hiking, swimming, snorkeling, surfing, sailing. The possibilities are endless! The temperature is also really nice, not to hot not to cold. But you might get spoiled if you end up coming here :D

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

This school participates in WUE which makes it more affordable for students from the mainland. If you are from Hawaii take advantage of the low in-state tuition.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Check out the general education requirements and try to complete those early if you aren't sure of what you want to major in. If you know what you are going to major in look at the major requirements and try to get some of your heavier major classes out of the way early so that you don't have to deal with all major classes your junior and senior year.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Athletes interested in water sports. Also a great place for people who dislike the cold.
