The Hawai’i Promise Scholarship is a UH system scholarship that ensures that first-degree, in-state students, with demonstrated financial need, have enough free financial aid to cover the direct costs of attending school, including tuition, fees, and an allowance for books and supplies. Please note that documentation is not needed to start the process in applying for academic accommodations. In general, it is best to trust your instinct - if it feels like a scam or a waste of time, it probably is. Securely send us documents using the UH FileDrop service: Use when specifying the recipient email. Even if legitimate, the likelihood of winning these scholarships is generally low, and your time may be better spent focusing on other scholarship applications. Some donors may also be looking to take advantage of free advertisement from students by requiring students to share their websites on social media and engage in competitions with other applicants to obtain the most likes, shares, upvotes, etc. UH File Drop is a service for the UH community for allowing transfer of large files (up to 999MB) to others in UH and/or people unaffiliated with the University. While many scholarship opportunities and donors are legitimate, be mindful that you should never have to pay to apply for a scholarship. Some scholarships are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis, so be sure to apply early. The best time to apply for external scholarships is from October to December of the prior school year. Each scholarship donor determines their own criteria and deadlines, so be sure to read all information carefully.

External scholarships are scholarships from individuals and organizations not affiliated with the University of Hawai’i system.
