    Students will not be considered for priority admission until they have completed both PathwayConnect and an English proficiency test. Students should apply after completion of those programs.
    But for Spring 2025 applicants: The admissions said it’s okay if you have not finished pathway yet before you apply. Just take the ELAT and turn in your university certificate as soon as possible.

      Hello, Michelle! BYUH currently doesn’t have a master's program, but there are other schools that offer full scholarships for master's programs. It's very competitive, but it's possible. I know someone who did it. He graduated summa cum laude here in Hawaii and had a lot of research work and solid work experience before he got that full scholarship.

    Thank you very much for this precise video ate Zia, now I know what to expect for my exam and learned new tips. I am very nervous tbh.
    Question thoo, about po sa doon sa sinabi mo po na declare ang income ng family, its just me and my papa living together sa bahay and my siblings are in different places, di ko na sila need pa ideclare ang income nila? nakalagay kase doon na yung mga kasama ko lang sa bahay. Naguguluhan din po ako sa family contribution, necessary din po ba talaga ilagay?

      I am really not sure din po sa aking essays, if it is okay enough to turn in, this might be too much to ask and far fetched but are you open po to read mine and just check if it has potential and if there's something missing or need to revised? I am very sorry to ask po, but im really nervous about my essay.

    • @ziamartinez
      @ziamartinez  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hello Rossy! Good questions! Here are my answers:
      1. Yes tama ka, di na need i-declare ang income ng siblings mo if they are not living in your home na.
      2. Yes kailangan maglagay ng family contribution/annual support. $600 ang minimum according here: financialaid.byuh.edu/onboarding-fees#:~:text=%24600%2D%247%2C500%20per%20student%20estimated%20annual%20family%20contribution.
      Don’t worry, pag andito ka na, mas magiging magaan yung babayaran kasi may job ka. Installment din yung pagbayad at deadline ay every end of the semester.
      3. If they did not instruct you to create a BYU account, baka meron nang naka-link na BYU account. Need kasing i-link yung 9-digit BYU ID #. Pero don’t worry if may check na yung Account Linking.
      4. I’m sure you did well sa iyong essays, pero if gusto mo pa rin ipa-check, you can send them here: gzbuhain@yahoo.com

      1. After mong mag-aral sa PathwayConnect, you need to send your transcript sa BYU-Hawaii. Nasa video yung tutorial kung paano.
      2. Maraming mga students dito na hindi naman nakapag serve ng full-time mission so hindi naman makakaapekto yun sa application mo.
      3. Kung wala kang bank account, hindi mo naman need mag-open. Tama ka, kahit yung bank statements nalang ng mga sponsors mo. Kung may bank statements din ang parents mo, need din ipasa.

However, the IWORK advisors are the one who decide how much family contribution for each student and it depends on the income of the students’ parent/s.
