Financial Difficulties

UHH Home > Student Affairs > International Student Services

All F-1 students are required to show sufficient funding to meet the costs of attending UH Hilo before we can issue an I-20 for admission. However, we understand that sometimes circumstances change. Perhaps the currency back home has been devalued or your original source of funding is not available. Unfortunately, only limited financial assistance is available for international students at UH Hilo. Some partial tuition waivers and other scholarships based on excellent academic performance are available after your first year. If you have a financial problem, schedule an appointment with us as soon as possible so we can advise you and suggest possible solutions.
