While we would love to be able to honor each and every request, we also need to balance the learning and development of our students and parents, with a schedule that makes good sense. To best manage the schedule, it's helpful to know if your event is set at a the above listed date/time for a specific reason, or if it's flexible.












Focus Area and Audience

New Student Programs has identified three areas that are important to the success of New Students:

  1. Creating Connections - Connecting students to each other, to Faculty, to Staff and the Campus Support Services which they run.
  2. Promoting Academic Success - Helping new students be academically successful.
  3. Developing 'Ohana - Building traditions, Vulcan pride, and making UH Hilo feel like home to our newest students.



There are three unique populations that Orientation serves. First Time / First Year Students, Transfer Students, and  Parents. In the Orientation schedule we'll identify who the intended audience is.
