Tuition, Scholarships & Financial Assistance

Information on tuition & fees are available at the UH Manoa Records & Registration Office.

1. Look over the various scholarships offered by the College of Education. 

2. The University of Hawaii at Manoa has implemented a new website with applications for scholarships for the entire campus, including our College of Education. Current UH Manoa students and incoming transfer/graduate students with a UH ID# can apply for scholarships at the following website:

http://www.star.hawaii.edu/scholarship

Fall 2012 & Spring 2013 scholarship online applications are available on the STAR website. Applications are due on February 17, 2012.

3. Search for the scholarships that you qualify for and apply to each scholarship individually online. You may want to save your short-essay responses in a separate file (ex. word document) so you can refer to it if you qualify to apply for multiple scholarships.

Scholarship applications are accepted once per year. The College of Education administers approximately $180,000.00 of scholarship funds exclusively for students currently enrolled, or in the process of applying to, the College of Education. Typically the award amount is $2,000.00/student for the academic year.

Teach Grant

What are the TEACH grants? Grants of up to $16,000 ($4000/year) degree-seeking students that can be used to cover the cost of tuition and other school expenses. The TEACH grants are authorized in the College Cost Reduction and Access Act, which was enacted into law in Fall 2007 to recruit teachers into priority subject areas and low-income schools. There is a teaching service requirement.
