The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has 20 wards (congregations) organized into 3 stakes (dioceses) on the BYU-Hawaii campus. About 100-150 students attend religious services in each ward. The experience that students gain in these wards as they carry out church responsibilities provides the LDS Church with a rich source of leadership when students graduate and participate in wards in their homelands around the world. Students who are members of other faiths are welcome to participate in LDS services or to attend other services in the area.

BYU-Hawaii students excel in athletics competition as well as in the classroom. In the NAIA and more recently in NCAA Division II, our teams have compiled 24 total national titles in: volleyball, tennis, and rugby.

When applying to BYU-Hawaii, each student agrees to abide by the school's honor code, which is based on standards established by the The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints who owns the university. The agreement includes abiding by the standards of Christian living taught by the Church, being honest in all behavior, respecting personal and property rights, obeying the law, avoiding drug abuse, complying with all university regulations, observing the church's Word of Wisdom (which includes abstaining from alcohol, tobacco, tea and coffee), abstaining from sexual relations outside of marriage, observing high standards of taste and decency, observing university standards of dress and grooming, and helping others fulfill their responsibilities under this code.

The Dress and Grooming Standards expect students to be modest, neat and clean in their dress and grooming. Swimming suits, gym clothes and other extremely casual or grubby attire are not considered acceptable wear on campus. Facial hair (beards/moustaches) is not permitted.

BYU-Hawaii is closely linked with the Polynesian Cultural Center, the number one paid tourist attraction in Hawaii, where over 30-percent of BYU-Hawaii students work as performers, guides, food service personnel, and in a variety of other positions to help pay for their educations. Each year because of the employment the PCC offers, hundred's of students who would ordinarily be unable to afford a college education have that opportunity.

President Steven C. Wheelwright - A man internationally known for his ability to solve complex managerial problems and foresee future business trends became the president of Brigham Young Universit-Hawaii in June of 2007.

Although separately incorporated, BYU-Hawaii is part of the three-campus BYU system that includes BYU-Idaho, located in Rexburg, and BYU in Provo, Utah.

President David O. McKay is the founder of BYU-Hawaii. While an apostle in 1921, he visited the Church-operated elementary school in Laie and envisioned that a university would someday be built in the community. Thirty-four years later, he saw the fulfillment of that vision when he presided over the groundbreaking ceremony for the campus.

David O. McKay, ninth president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, broke ground for the university on February 12, 1955. Classes in the new Church College of Hawaii started on September 26 of that same year.

BYU-Hawaii is sponsored by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The Church is headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah, and has more than 12 million members around the world.

https://y.byu.edu/ae/prod/authentication/cgi/findNetId.cgi 

BYUH ID - Your BYUH ID is the seven digit number you are assigned when you are accepted as a student and is the number printed on your ID card. This number is also issued to all employees and dependents of employees and students.

CES Net ID - Your CES Net ID was created when you first applied to the University.  It is used to log into my|byuh, e-mail, my|drive, etc.

For Windows NT/2000: First press Ctrl-Alt-Del, then click 'Change Password' and enter the new password of your choice. Confirm password by entering the password again.

For Windows 95/98: Go to the Start menu, then Settings, then Control Panel. This will open a window where you will select Password then change to a password of your choice. Another option for Windows 95/98 is go to the Start Menu, then Run. Type 'syspassword' then enter the new password and confirm.

Otherwise, call the IT Services for help at x.3921

Network Login: 

• Checking the Advanced Settings: If you already have your CES NetID and password and aren't able to get past the initial login prompt for the computer, check the 'advanced settings' as follows.

• For Students:
  • Tree = LDS
  • Context = STUDENT.BYUH
  • Server = is left blank

• For Administration:
  • Tree = LDS
  • Context = BYUH
  • Server = is left blank

Windows Login:

• There are two login windows on our campus network.
  • The first is a Novell Login to allow users to login to the network.
  • The second is the Windows Login that will login users to a specific workstation granting them access to certain files and applications.

• For Students:
  • Students will generally use Academic Computing Lab (ACL) computers.
  • After the first login, they will only press Enter on the second login.
  • If students have questions they can ask Lab Consultants or contact ITS.
• For Administration
  • After using their NetID and password on the first login (Novell) they will generally have a second login (Windows) unless Single-Sign-On has been activated.
  • The Windows login also requires the user's NetID and password. If users aren't able to get past the second login prompt, using their NetID and password the settings of your computer will need to be changed by an ITS Computer Support Representative. Please call ext. 3921.

If login is still unsuccessful, please call ITS at Ext. 3921.

1.      Check if you already have a CES Net ID. If you've ever applied online to BYU-Provo, BYU-Idaho, BYU-Hawaii or LDS Business College, you already have a CES Net ID. It is important to have one and only one CES Net ID.

 *NOTE: Do not register another person's computer using your Net ID. Individuals will be held responsible for any activity that occurs on a computer registered to them.

We currently have a DS3 connection through Pacific Light Net, Inc. (PLNI) giving us a 15 Mbps pipe to the internet. We also have a 45 Mbps pipe through the University of Hawaii to access Internet 2.

Users must obtain a NetID and password which is normally received at the time a user receives their email account. Any questions on id or passwords should be directed to x3921.

Wireless technology is available in many areas of campus, including the Resnet area (TVA, Hales, and Town Homes).  Public ports are available on the second floor of the Library.  Patch cords are available at the Front Desk.  Kiosks and labs are also available for web browsing and email around campus for students who don't have laptops.

 *NOTE: To learn how to configure your wireless so you could access the campus network please refer to FAQ: "How do I configure my wireless connection to use the BYUH LAN?"

We currently have 263 BYUH access points on campus and have plans to expand to every part of campus. When you turn on your computer your wireless card should be able to scan BYUH network with SSID byuh.

This is our most frequently asked question.

ITS hotline will be updated as systems experience problems.  Some servers will occasionally be taken offline for maintenance. You will be sent an email notifying you of the scheduled downtime. Maintenance will normally be scheduled on Friday evenings or other non-peak user hours.

If you are experiencing low speed levels, and the network is not down, you may have problems with your memory or disk space; please call IT Services (ex.3921) and they will help to find you a solution.

Because these phones will be using the same physical network wiring as all the computers on campus, any physical problems that affect computer networks can affect the IP phones.

No.  We are currently working on solving this problem.

No.  The voice data and network data are on 2 separate virtual LANs (VLANs). It would be an exceptional circumstance that would cause interference between the two.

No.  Ideally they will run at 100Mbps, assuming the Ethernet card in your computer is capable.

Yes.  When we send you the user profile, you'll find a link to the user guide.

No. Screens on the phones are only for information display.  The screen also shows the function of the "soft keys" that are just below the screen.

It may.  We are currently testing several different headsets.

A physical cable is connected to the 10/100SW jack at the back of the phone to the wall jack.  Your workstation is then connected to the 10/100PC at the back of the phone.  The phone needs to be programmed and activated in the CallManager. 

It is a device which transmits the sound of your voice over a computer network using internet protocol (IP) rather than sending the signal over traditional phone wires.  Your workstation/laptop shares the same wire as the IP phone.

By default, the phones in the dorms and TVA apartments have the following features:  voice mail, conference call, and transfer.

For instructions, please contact ITS at 3921.

The continuous beeping sound represents your phone is not registered in the system.  There are 2 reasons for this:

1.  The phone is plugged in to a wrong jack.

2.  There is a system configuration problem.  Please report the problem to ITS at 3921, including your name, phone number, hale/room or apartment number and your e-mail address. 

No. Students who need to make long distance calls must have a call card from one of the service providers, and need to follow the calling instructions printed on the card.

1.  The caller might have hung up.

2.  If this happens often, there may be problem with your phone or line.  Please create a ticket with ITS at 3921 to have it check.

If you meet the employment requirement, you then need to contact the ITS Office Manager or BYUH Purchasing Agent to assist with selecting your computer.  Then, select and create a quote for the computer that you are interested in buying.  The quote will then be printed for you and you must take it to the Purchasing Office to complete a Purchase Requisition (PR) Form.  Your quote will be attached to the Requisition and submitted for approval.  Once it is approved your order will be placed by the Purchasing Office.  If your computer order is more than $2500, you are required to pay the difference up front before the order is placed.   When you computer has been received by CDC, Accounts Receivables will then contact you to arrange payments for you new computer.

Purchasing recommends that you order from the two companies that university orders from. These are Apple Co, for Macintosh Computers and Dell for PC Computers. You will need to see Purchasing for additional information should you choose not to order a MAC or PC.

Yes. Students will need to see the bookstore for assistance in purchasing a computer. ITS does not purchase computers for students.

Yes. The employee must be employed for 1 year before purchasing a computer.

We can install Microsoft and Corel software on the personal machines of faculty and staff machines for a special education price. Faculty and Staff can bring in their personal computers to IT Services, and should have it installed in 3-5 business days. IT Services can also install non-campus software for an hourly rate. For any questions, contact ITS Call Center. (ext. 3921) The Bookstore can order/sell software to students at a discounted education price.

No, due to the policy of personal computers. We are unable to troubleshoot personal hardware components because of liability.

New Refund Policy-Effective Fall 2008:

The refund policy has been revised to help the university process refunds of excess student aid to the students in a more effective way thus preventing the constant reevaluation and adjustment that is currently occurring during the first two weeks of each semester/term.

Changes:

1.       A “Federal Authorization Form” allowing the University to apply Federal Aid to any charges on the student account before refunding the remaining balance to the student will be available for students to sign.  This will allow the university to consider the student account to be paid in full if the student has sufficient anticipated aid (aid awarded but not disbursed) to cover all charges on the student account.

2.      Aid will be disbursed to student accounts on the day after the Add/Drop Deadline.  This will prevent the constant adjustment and over/under awarding that occurs under the current system.  Refunds will be processed and available to students within 3 days of aid disbursement.

3.      If a student needs to receive Financial Aid before the Add/Drop Deadline they may appeal to the Financial Services Office.  An appropriate advance of their Financial Aid up to 10 days before the semester or class begins will be handled on an individual basis.

Advantages:

Federal Aid can only be applied to specific charges on the student’s account.  A “Federal Authorization Form” that can be signed by the student will authorize the university to apply the aid to pay all charges on the student account.  The university would then be able to consider the student’s account to be fully paid even if the federal funds have not yet been received.  The students would not have to sign the form but if they didn’t and they had charges on their account which could not be paid with federal aid without their permission the university would require the student to pay those charges prior to the deadlines to prevent their classes from being dropped.

Moving the date to begin refund processing will allow the student to add/drop classes without causing the system and university employees to constantly analyze and adjust their eligibility for aid.  When many changes are made to the student accounts it makes them difficult to read and understand.  It also means that students are being over/under awarded and over/under refunded.  The university ends up processing multiple checks for many students or over-refunding and then having to collect back from the student.

Background:

This policy has been developed jointly by Financial Services, Admissions, Registration, IWES, International Student Services, and Financial Aid.  The University has had significant challenges in processing financial aid for the students.  One of the reasons is that many students wait until after school has started to make arrangements to pay their bills.  Making these two changes would allow the university time to process financial aid and post correct amounts after the students are finished adding/dropping.  It also would allow other university departments to see that the student has made appropriate arrangements to pay their account.  The students statements would be more easily understood because charges and aid would be put on the account once rather than going on and coming off multiple times.  It would prevent the university from overcharging or over-refunding the students. This refund policy is similar to BYU Idaho’s refund policy with the exception that BYU Idaho will process refunds once and will require later refunds to be issued in the following term.  BYUH will allow later refunding.

New Payment Policy - Effective Fall 2008:

The payment policy has been revised to help students be financially, as well as academically, prepared and prevent university collection problems as well as strengthen operational efficiency.

Changes:

<!--[if !supportLists]-->1.       <!--[endif]-->Payment Deadline for Tuition and all other charges will now be seven (7) calendar days prior to the first day of class.  This is a soft deadline with the consequence of non-payment being a hold preventing adding classes.  If the student has signed the “Federal Authorization Form” allowing  the University to apply Federal Aid to any charges on the student account before refunding the remaining balance to the student then the university will consider anticipated aid (aid awarded but not disbursed) in calculating the balance of the student’s account.  In other words if the student has sufficient anticipated aid to cover all charges on the student account then the account will be considered paid in full and no hold will be placed on the student account. This does not include scholarships or benefits from non-BYUH entities (i.e. Off-Campus scholarships). 

<!--[if !supportLists]-->2.       <!--[endif]-->Final Payment Deadline will be 11:59pm of the day after the add/drop deadline.  This is a hard deadline with the consequence being classes are dropped for any student who has a past due balance with no reinstatement.  Again, if the student has signed the “Federal Authorization Form” allowing  the University to apply Federal Aid to any charges on the student account before refunding the remaining balance to the student then the university will consider anticipated aid (aid awarded but not disbursed) in calculating the balance of the student’s account as stated above.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->3.       <!--[endif]-->Drop classes for any student who has a past due balance on the day following the Final Payment Deadline.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->4.       <!--[endif]-->No reinstatement of classes after the Final Payment Deadline for students whose classes are cancelled for non-payment (with exceptions for appeals where the situation was beyond the control of the student) and payments received after the Final Payment Deadline for those students will be refunded.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->5.       <!--[endif]-->No late payment fee.  A fee is not necessary based on the other consequences of the two deadlines.

Advantages:

We need our students to come to BYUH prepared financially as well as academically.  When students come to BYUH without having taken care of their financial obligations they spend much of the first few days of class resolving past due balances, arranging for financial aid and loans, and paying their bills.  This is a time when they should be concentrating on their studies so that they can be successful in the classroom.  All of these financial obligations can be taken care of weeks or months in advance.  The university is also able to function much more efficiently when students have taken care of their financial affairs before the first week of class.  Some specific benefits of this policy are:

<!--[if !supportLists]-->1.       <!--[endif]-->Moving the due date to seven (7) calendar days prior to the first day of class will help both students and the university by providing an incentive to students to get their finances in order prior to the start of class so they can concentrate on their studies and spread the demand on administrative offices and computer systems away from the first few days of class.  This will reduce the length of lines to pay bills, speak with financial personnel, and improve the response time on the various University web sites.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->2.       <!--[endif]-->Canceling student’s classes for non-payment will keep students who are temporarily unprepared financially from accumulating debt.  It will also help students avoid significant collection charges charged by collection agencies.  It will help reduce the university’s expense related to students who attend but do not pay for their classes.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->3.       <!--[endif]-->Allow for better registration and planning of classes.  Additional classes can be added sooner based on registered class sizes.

Background:

This policy has been developed jointly by Financial Services, Admissions, Registration, IWES, International Student Services, and Financial Aid.  The process of registering, charging, providing financial aid, and receiving payment from the students during the first two weeks of school is causing long lines, rising amounts of frustration on the part of students and staff, and increasing collection issues.  We believe these changes will help reduce these problems.  It will provide a clear process for the students to follow and the university to enforce therefore allowing the students to focus on their studies.  It will reduce the amount of student charges that have to be sent to collections or written-off by the university.  This policy has been patterned after the successful tuition payment policy change that went into effect Fall 2007 at BYU Provo.

Transfer students should look at the religion requirement as consisting of two parts: a subject matter requirement plus a residency requirement. The subject matter requirement may be completed either at BYUH, at one of the other Church Educational System schools, or an LDS Institute of Religion. A minimum number of religion credit hours must be completed at BYUH regardless of the number of religion credit hours completed elsewhere to fulfill the residency requirement according to the following schedule:

*More credits may be needed if the subject matter requirement has not been completed.

Note: The transfer credits are shown in semester hours. To convert quarter hours to semester hours, multiply the quarter hours by two and divide by three (i.e., 12 quarter hours x 2 = 24 ÷ 3 = 8 semester hours).

Name changes can be done only if one of the following has taken place:

• You are now married

• You are now divorced

• You have changed your legal name

To have your name changed you must do the following:

1. Complete a 'Name Change Form' available at the Registrar's Office

1. Submit a photocopy of the legal document showing your new name (examples would be a marriage certificate, valid passport, divorce decree, court document, or LDS Temple marriage certificate, etc.).

NOTE: The above information must be submitted in person or by mail to the Registrar's Office.

The letter grade I (Incomplete) is to indicate that the required work for a class has not been completed. Students do not reregister for a class for which they have an Incomplete. An I is given only when extenuating circumstances beyond the control of the student make it impossible to complete the required work within the prescribed time. Arrangements must be made between the instructor and the student prior to the end of the semester or term.

An I Grade Form specifying the work to be completed and the deadline for completion (up to a maximum of one year), prepared by the instructor and approved by the appropriate dean of the college/school, must be turned in to the Registrar's Office no later than one week after grades are due. The I is never given when a student is failing or has failed a course.

A Grade Change Authorization form must be processed through the Registrar's Office on completion of the course work. A $3.00 fee is required for changing an incomplete to a letter grade. The I is not computed in the grade point average until one year has elapsed, at which time it will be computed as an F (failing grade) if the course requirements have not been completed.

When a final grade is not submitted by the specified deadline, the grade of "NS" will be posted on the student's official record. NS means "grade was not submitted." An NS grade will not affect a student's final grade or the grade point average. However, the student will not earn any credit for the course as long as the NS grade remains-which may affect scholarships, financial aid, or housing. Faculty members have the responsibility to change the NS designation to the proper final grade. Immediately following the deadline, e-mail notification will be sent to Deans, indicating which faculty members have not submitted grades.

P is used to indicate the successful completion of a course taken on the pass/not pass option. This option is available to students at the University as a means of encouraging study outside the chosen major and is limited to one course per semester or term. An elective course, a course for which credit is received by examination, and any course specifically designated may utilize the pass/not pass option. Classes in the student's major (with some exceptions), religion, general education, or EIL classes may not be taken with this option. Students electing this option will be given the P grade if their work in the course is rated as equivalent to C or better. If the work is not rated at this level, NP will appear on the permanent record. The P and NP are not included in the computation of the grade point average.

A grade of T indicates course work in progress and is only used in 399R courses in which work may extend beyond the semester. The T grade may be changed to A, B, C, D, F, or P, depending on the grade rule for the course, when the work is completed. A T grade does not effect a student's GPA.

The X grade is used when a student requires more than one semester or term to achieve the required proficiency of a course, though the quantity of work has been satisfactory. To receive credit and a grade for the class, the student must register in a subsequent semester or term and achieve the proficiency required. The X grade is given only in the following classes and may be given only one time for any course:

* all English as an International Language courses except 201
* English 101

The X grade will have no effect on the GPA and the student will not receive credit for a course in which it is received.

POLICY SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE

Students discontinuing a class officially during the add and drop period will have no listing of the class entered on their permanent record. Students withdrawing from a class during the 2nd to 5th week will not have a grade of W appear on their permanent record. From the sixth week through the ninth week (fourth to fifth week for spring term), the instructor is asked to give a report of the grade status (passing or failing) at the time of the withdrawal. A grade of W will be entered on the record of a student who is passing at the time of withdrawal and a WF for those who are failing. The W is not used in computing the student's grade point average. The WF is counted as 0.00 grade points. The UW is given when a student discontinues attendance in a class without officially withdrawing and is also counted as 0.00 in computing the grade point average.

Grades are available to students via the Internet at the end of each semester/term (hard copies of the grade report are also available upon request).

Upon entering into an IWES agreement, the University has permission to send grades, progress reports and other educational records to parents or legal guardians, unless a student married or over 24 years of age.

Change of grade may occur after the final grades for a semester or term are filed with the Registrar only upon petition through the instructor. Forms for this purpose are available at the Registrar's Office. No grade changes will be effected after one year has elapsed from the time of filing the final grade. Grounds for petitioning for a change of grade are completion of work in a course with T and I grades, clerical or discretionary error on the part of the instructor, computer error, or recording error. No other grounds will be considered.

Waivers of published graduation requirements are granted only in exceptional cases. Application for a general education waiver is made through the Registrar's Office and the Academic Exceptions Committee.

Application for a waiver in the major is made to the Dean over the major. Substitutions in the graduation requirements are granted by the dean over the major program. The Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences reviews the exceptions for general education. For interdisciplinary general education courses, the General Education and Honors Committee assumes the role of a college/school.

Students who expect to qualify for a degree must apply for graduation. The University recommends that students apply for candidacy the year before they plan to graduate. The application form is available at the Registrar's Office or on line. The deadlines for the completed application form to be submitted to the Registrar's Office are: Not later than January 30 of the final year for December commencement, and not later than September 30 of the final year for June commencement.

The Registrar's Office will notify students in writing of the requirements to be completed for a degree from BYUH. If the student does not graduate on the date indicated on the application, the evaluation will be held for a future graduation date without charge provided the student submits an extension of graduation form. If a student does not graduate within three years of the applied graduation date (with the exception of the extension of graduation form) and does not communicate in writing with the Academic Advisor or the Registrar's Office, the graduation application will be officially terminated. The student will then need to re-submit a new application.

A student's graduation may be delayed or denied if he or she is found in violation of the BYUH Honor Code.
