Is housing provided by Graduate Division or UHM?  Unfortunately, the Graduate Division office does not provide housing to graduate students.  You can begin your search for housing resources on the UHM Student Housing Services website.  What are my transportation/parking options for getting to and from the event? We encourage ridesharing, taking TheBus or the Rainbow Shuttle to get to our event (find different ways to Manoa here).  All day parking is available in the Lower Campus Parking Structure or in the Upper Campus green Visitors Stalls.  Visit the Commuter Service website for updated parking fees, maps, and the Rainbow Shuttle schedule. Can I bring a friend or family member to the event? We are glad to hear you have a supportive community.  However, orientation is geared towards UHM graduate students.  We hope to reserve all
