The Capstone Experience

As we continue to establish the capstone experience of our students, we’ve been guided to five pillars that will position our students to be leaders, not just by title or calling, but true disciple leaders who can bless millions across Oceania and the Asian Rim. We are preparing disciples of Jesus Christ who exemplify faith, intellect, purpose, resilience, and leadership.

Imagine how the church will be strengthened, as every graduate is committed to live and lead in Oceania and the Asian Rim with:

  • Faith: A deeper faith in Christ and commitment to their covenants
  • Intellect: A sharpened mind prepared to think critically and creatively
  • Purpose: A purposeful life that aligns with their personal gifts and opportunities
  • Resilience: A tested and proven resilience that will anchor them in turbulent times
  • Leadership: A capacity to lead others to growth and excellence

These leaders will bless their nations, their families, and the Church in remarkable ways. We are grateful for your ongoing support and dedication. Mahalo for being an integral part of our BYU–Hawaii 'ohana!
