Students who have completed a BA degree from a regionally accredited college or university (excluding other baccalaureate degrees), will be exempted from the General Education Basic and Area requirements for a second B.A. degree, unless specific prerequisites are needed for the new major. However, such students must complete the UH Hilo Integrative, major, and other graduation requirements.

Students who have completed other kinds of baccalaureate degree may need to take additional courses to complete the Basic and Area requirements, as well as the Integrative, major, and other graduation requirements.
