A limited quantity of student permits (approximately 1,200) are made available for reservation upon successful completion of class registration for the semester. Students’ home institution must be UH Mānoa, and be enrolled in a minimum of 12 credit hours of classes (undergraduate) or 9 credit hours (graduate) at UH Mānoa – non Outreach College credits only. This process is based on class standing (i.e. seniors register first, then juniors, etc). Those with early registration accommodations will be able to reserve their permit at the same time they would have registered without said accommodations.
