ʻOhana Orientation

(Parents/Family Members/Guests)

Congratulations on your student’s acceptance to the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa!

Therefore, we’re also excited to welcome you to the UH Mānoa ʻOhana. We invite you to partake in our ‘Ohana Orientation, a one-day event, where you will have the opportunity to meet other parents, family members, and guests of incoming students, learn about the many resources and services available to your student on campus, and ask our enthusiastic NRW Peer Leaders and professional staff any questions you may have.

Fee: $75 per guest
