Mānoa: VNR: Nearly $4.4M federal grant expands college pathways for Hawaiʻi Island students The University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa has secured a $4,368,000 federal grant to help 840 students from rural Hawaiʾi Island communities prepare for college, pursue career opportunities and succeed in higher education. The seven-year Gaining Early Awareness and Readiness for Undergraduate Programs (GEAR UP) Hawaiʽi Island Partnership Project will run through 2032, supporting students from seven target schools in Kohala, Honokaʻa, Keaʻau, Kaʻū and Pāhoa. The initiative aims to address educational barriers facing students in communities where poverty and geographic isolation can limit access to academic support and postsecondary opportunities. Project activities include a yearlong student success class for students in grades seven through 12, in-person and online tutoring, summer credit recovery, financial literacy workshops, and assistance completing college and financial aid applications.
