Welcome to the Hilo Advising Center!
Contact us:
- If you receive prerequisite or level errors that prevent you from registering for classes; and/or
- If you are also unable to register for UH Hilo classes because of mandatory advising or orientation holds at other UH campuses.
We are experiencing high demand for drop-in advising in preparation for Fall 2026 registration. This means you may experience longer wait times. Check-in and the next available advisor will assist. Students will be helped in the order they appear in the queue, regardless of modality.
