Brigham Young University–Hawaii is a private university in Laie, Hawaii — an island town on the north shore of Oahu. Founded in 1955, BYU–Hawaii is owned and operated by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and has a clear mission: to prepare disciples of Jesus Christ who will live and lead in Oceania and the Asian Rim.
‍
Adjacent to the beautiful Laie Temple, BYU–Hawaii is a fully residential campus where 3,000 students, representing more than 60 countries, live, study, and work together in unity. The university strives to be an example to the world of inter cultural peace; students from across the globe share classrooms, church services, dorms, and workplaces. And while more than 9-in-10 students are Latter-day Saints, every student commits to live by an Honor Code distinctive to schools in the Church Educational System (CES).

Experiential learning t BYU–Hawaii is woven into the fabric of the student experience. Most students work at the university or the neighboring Polynesian Cultural Center, where they gain meaningful leadership experience and share the cultures of the Pacific Islands with visitors from around the world. IWORK, which funds the university's visitor exchange program, allows students with financial need to earn their education through work rather than debt.
‍
A small student-to-faculty ratio fosters deep learning, and the Holokai curriculum pairs every major with two additional fields of study. Intercultural peacebuilding is both a campus ethos and one of the university's most popular majors. This unique, world-class education provides a distinctive capstone experience for graduates who will return home prepared to strengthen their families, communities, countries, and the Church.
