BYU-Hawaii's course catalog still carries pre-2020 text saying the ACT or SAT is required. Two admissions-office pages state the opposite and are treated as authoritative; worth re-checking next cycle.

College Scorecard (latest.cost.net_price.private.by_income_level.*), 2024

Estimate what your family would pay

Every school is required to publish a net price calculator. It asks about your family's finances and returns an estimate for you specifically, which is worth more than any average on this page. Your school counselor and the college's financial aid office can also help.

Scholarships and merit aid

We don't have a confirmed note on merit scholarships at this school. Check its financial aid pages rather than assuming either way.
