Above & Beyond Points

The Above and Beyond points system has made its triumphant return, now revamped for an even more exhilarating experience! The purpose of the Nā Hokua Above and Beyond System is to motivate and reward students for exceptional participation and commitment within the Nā Hokua Project and the broader lāhui. For those who choose to embark on this journey, Above and Beyond points become a testament to your commitment and dedication. They represent the extra steps taken, the persistent pursuit of growth, and the resolute spirit that propels you forward.

Maybe it's the choice to extend academic coaching beyond the initial 12-hour requirement, the live attendance of all of our enlightening Nā Hokua workshops, or the timely completion of progress checks and evaluations—these are just a glimpse into the diverse ways you can amass these points. This is your chance to stand out, to strive for excellence that transcends the norm.

As the Fall semester unfolds, the window of opportunity to accumulate Above and Beyond points spans from the first day of summer until the closing of the Fall semester. Come January, your accrued points translate into an additional stipend, ensuring your dedication receives the recognition it deserves. And here's where the excitement doubles, once the Spring semester begins, you will have the chance to embark on this fun once again! You'll be able to accumulate your points in this semester up until the last day in May to turn in Transcripts. From then, the same process will happen and your accrued points translates into yet another additional stipend.
