Policy to Give Preference to Hawaiian Applicants

Kamehameha Schools’ policy on admissions is to give preference to applicants of Hawaiian ancestry to the extent permitted by law. If you would like to be considered under that policy, your Hawaiian ancestry must be verified by Kamehameha’s Ho‘oulu Verification Services. Please work directly with the Ho‘oulu Verification Services staff to complete your ancestry determination as soon as possible and preferably no later than the application deadline for the program to which you are applying. 

For more information please call Ho‘oulu Verification Services at 808-534-8080, or toll-free at 1-800-842-4682, then press 2. You may also check: www.ksbe.edu/verification for answers to frequently asked questions or to request an Ancestry Registry form.

KS Kapālama Summer School gives priority to current KS students. Remaining spaces will be filled based on the date your application is received.

The application deadline is Thursday, February 15, 2024.
