KAHULUI, Maui - Those seeking an associate degree but unable to fit classes in busy work schedules, can still achieve their goal through UH Maui College’s Degree-in-3 program.

All are invited to a free orientation and consultation session at UHMC’s Ka Lama Building:

  • Friday, July 14 at 5:30 p.m. (Ka Lama 206B)
  • Thursday, July 20 at 10 a.m. (Ka Lama 201)

Degree-in-3 program students enter as part of a cohort that will be focused on graduating with an associate in arts degree within three years. Graduates can opt to continue to a baccalaureate degree program.

Students wishing to continue their education are also welcome to the program.

“We want to work with those who want a college degree, but are busy working and need a flexible class schedule,” said Chancellor Lui Hokoana. “Our counsellors are ready to guide you through the next step.”

Day, evening and online classes are offered to students at the UHMC campus, as well as financial aid and access to campus facilities and programs, such as the laptop loan program and employment resources.

Attendees will be given an overview of what to expect in the program, as well as personal consultation during the application process.
