2008-2009 Cost of Attendance


University
of Hawaii West Oahu utilizes standard budgets which are updated annually by the University of Hawaii's Office of the Vice President of Student Affairs. The budgets are a reflection of the changes in national cost of living figures and local community costs. The cost of attendance includes more than the items the student pays to the institution.

The cost of attendance budget for the period covered by the financial aid award is comprised of the following:

  • Tuition
  • Student Fees
  • Books & Supplies
  • Room & Board
  • Transportation
  • Personal/Miscellaneous Expenses

These budgets will vary in total amounts depending on the number of credit hours for which you are enrolled and where you plan to live.  For the 2008-2009 academic year, a typical full-time (12+ credits/semester) budget is:
