Hawaii SB1489 simplifies residency requirements for high school graduates to qualify for resident tuition fees at the University of Hawaii.

The bill aims to make it easier for high school graduates to qualify for resident tuition fees at the University of Hawaii. It allows students to qualify if their parents or guardians have been bona fide residents for at least twelve months before enrollment, or if the student graduated from a Hawaii high school within the last four years and plans to enroll in an undergraduate degree program. This change aims to help students facing challenges such as homelessness or complex family situations.
