Chaminade University of Honolulu Student Handbook 2023–2024


As members of the Chaminade University of Honolulu community, regardless of whether you are a first-year student or graduate student, live on or off campus, or are 18 or 35, all students are held to the same values and expectations. The Student Handbook and the Code of Conduct have been designed to empower students while holding them accountable. Any community must have a set of guiding values; this Handbook is meant to serve as a guide not only for our students, but also for faculty, staff, and administrators to ensure that all members of our community, including faculty and staff, are informed about policies, procedures, rights and privileges.


DISCLAIMER The information contained in the Student Handbook is considered to be descriptive in nature. It does not constitute an irrevocable contract between the student and Chaminade University. In the event that there are any apparent inconsistencies, or where there may be ambiguity, the provisions of the Chaminade University Policy Manuals shall be controlling over the Student Handbook or any other publication. The current edition of the Chaminade University of Honolulu Student Handbook and Student Code of Conduct found therein is considered the valid policy and procedure manual for Chaminade University students. All students are subject to the policies and regulations found in the 2022–2023 edition of the Student Handbook. The Student Handbook is published by the Office of the Vice President for Student Affairs/Dean of Students at Chaminade University of Honolulu. Since the included programs and services are subject to continuous review and evaluation, the university reserves the right to make changes in the content of this Handbook that it deems necessary and desirable. Changes are made through established procedures, and notice of changes will be sent out via the university email system.
