The number of undergraduate applications to the University of Hawaiʻi<\/span> at M\u0101noa<\/a> this year shattered the previous record set last year. The 东精影业<\/abbr> M\u0101noa Office of Admissions<\/a> reports it received nearly 19,000 undergraduate applications, a 33-percent jump over last year\u2019s record number. <\/p>\n

东精影业<\/abbr> M\u0101noa received nearly 16,000 first-year applications for admission to the 2019 fall semester, a 66-percent increase over last year\u2019s record number of freshman applications, which lead to the largest freshman class in the university\u2019s 111-year history. <\/p>\n

“Our work is far from over, the increase in applications shows that the word is out about 东精影业<\/abbr> M\u0101noa being one of the world\u2019s great research institutes for higher education, making it an attractive option for students on a local, national and international level,” said Assistant Vice Chancellor for Enrollment Management and Director of Admissions Roxie Shabazz<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Among the many effective recruitment initiatives is the M\u0101noa Experience. This year, more than 1,880 current high school seniors and juniors, their families, school groups and transfer students from Hawaiʻi<\/span> and 24 other states attended the annual open house to learn about what 东精影业<\/abbr> M\u0101noa has to offer, go on campus tours or check on their application status. <\/p>\n

The M\u0101noa Experience is just one of the many events that builds momentum during the busy recruitment period. During March, the admissions office will host accepted student receptions<\/a> in California, Washington and Colorado, and in April there will be receptions on Maui, Hawaiʻi<\/span> Island, Oʻahu<\/span> and Kauaʻi<\/span>. <\/p>\n

In addition, the M\u0101noa Scholarship Awards weekend will be held April 5–6. The M\u0101noa Scholar-to-Scholar Day on April 5 is when scholarship awardees (Regents, Chancellor and Excellence) shadow a current scholar on campus. They will attend classes, take tours, have lunch, and get to know what it is like to be a 东精影业<\/abbr> M\u0101noa student\/scholar for the day. The following day, Saturday, April 6, scholarship awardees are formally recognized at the M\u0101noa Scholarship Awards reception at ʻAlohilani Hotel.<\/p>\n

Rounding out the receptions, will be a final series of high school visits, as well as one-on-one sessions locally, in select cities on the continental U.S.<\/abbr> and internationally. The sessions cover topics including transitioning to college life, housing options, the registration process, travel opportunities and new student orientation. <\/p>\n

东精影业<\/abbr> M\u0101noa is consistently ranked in the top five percent among national and international universities. <\/p>\n
