I am currently enrolled as a freshman and looking forward to starting classes very soon! So far, I have met with a counselor and my first year advisor, both were so helpful and patient with me as I made a last minute commitment to the school. I was able to be directed to the right counselor to speak to about my financial situation, payment plans, registering for classes, and what opportunities I might be interested in later this school year. Speaking with my counselor and advisor was a great experience and I feel very safe and comfortable going to them for assistance if needed. One thing I would like to see change is more directory around the school, though every person is nice enough to help with directions, I feel it is more convenient if signs were more visible or to have a map at various locations of the campus.
Kapiolani is different than your regular community college because they're focused more on you as a student. I really liked it because they offer tutoring resources during set times at the library. In addition to that, their goal is to ultimately have you transfer over to a 4-year university, in order to do that they lay out an academic plan for you as you choose your classes with your goal in mind so that you can make the optimal decision for your future. The campus is clean, safe and offers a gorgeous view of the ocean. The professors are great and are willing to have personal time in order to help you. The only thing that I would recommend changing is the way you register for classes as sometimes the website can be a headache, it has bugged out on me a few times saying that I had a hold on my account which resulted me in having to call support multiple times. Overall though, Kapiolani is a good school.
My major is Culinary arts, so I took some laboratory class. All chefs were kind, and had wonderful techniques. I couldn’t cook any fine plate before I enter KCC, but now, I can! Many experiences at KCC were amazing!
