Kapiʻolani Community College utilizes standard budgets that are updated annually by the Office of the Vice President of Student Affairs at the University of Hawaiʻi. The budgets are a reflection of the changes in the national cost of living figures and local community costs. The cost of attendance includes more than the items the student pays to the institution.
