Housing accommodations to meet most needs of the single student, married student, and disabled students are available either on campus or in privately owned units in the Hilo community. On-campus residence halls currently house 622 students in residence halls and apartment style arrangements. Off-campus housing includes privately owned apartments, homes, or rooms in the Hilo community.

Because of the limited number of housing accommodations, students and potential students are encouraged to apply early for on-campus housing. New students in need of off-campus housing are urged to use the services of New Student Programs to make arrangements personally with a provider of privately-owned housing, or come to Hilo as early as possible to secure housing.

UH Hilo offers several on-campus housing opportunities.
