While we are pending the approval of the 2009 Applicant Information Bulletin (or AIB for short), we highly recommend that applicants take a look at the 2008 copy of the AIB.
While the AIB is subject to change from year to year, 90% of the information it contains should remain accurate.
The AIB is every aspect of the scholarship program in a nutshell, and we consider it a must-read for potential applicants to the scholarship program.
You can get it here: 2008 NHHSP Application Information Bulletin (AIB)
Please check our site regularly for updates, as the 2009 AIB will be made available as soon as it is approved.

…for the Federal government to approve our supplemental documents packet, we encourage ALL scholars who are applying for the scholarship this year to gather the following documents:
A certified copy of your birth certificate (showing Native Hawaiian ancestry). If you were born in the state of Hawaii you can order one from the Department of Health.
A copy of your transcripts up to the current academic year.
A one-page resume (no personal statements please).
These three documents are time-consuming to gather so we recommend that applicants get started on theirs as soon as they can!
If you have any questions regarding the application process, please contact us!
