<p>I'm planning on getting my high school degree with the Lincoln academy online when I turn 16. I'm currently living in Texas but I really want to attend college in Hawaii. Im looking for something affordable. I don't know how to explain it but there is a very unique lifestyle on islands. That's what I'm looking for. Im just curious to see if anyone going to school in Hawaii knows of a good college.</p>
<p>I have a friend who went to Brigham Young University in Hawaii.
It is a religious school.
She says it have a strict no alcohol rule and does not have a large party scene, aka Friday nights is just another night.</p>
<p>Your definition of “affordable”?</p>
<p>The number of colleges and universities in Hawaii is limited. See here:

<p>I’d like to keep it around 10k a semester. Im not looking for a religious school. Im also not opposed to parties.</p>
<p>Try the net price calculator at each school.</p>
<p>I have two friends that attend UH Manoa - the campus is close to Waikiki, about two miles, which is great if you’re looking for a small job. Quite honestly if you can swing it I say go for it, these two friends love it! And yes, they post amazing photos nearly everyday on facebook

<p>Hi, I’m a University of Hawaii at Manoa grad. The school might be 2 miles from the beach in a straight line, but you cannot actually walk. There is a huge canal to go around. You need to take a bus (that doesn’t have a timetable, well at least when I was there.)</p>
<p>You have to be very laid back person to be happy there. After a couple of years, you might get bored. While I was there, maybe 2 professional musical theaters visited Oahu. No big art museum to speak of, no amusement park and no four seasons. If you love to surf or/and enjoy the island mentality (life is good, no need to compete…), then you will love it there.</p>
<p>If you want to study Asian studies or languages, or Oceanography, they have very very good programs there at UH-Manoa.</p>
