The University is generally ranked amongst the top ten university level schools on Nejiro.
The University is publicly funded by the city of Hilo as part of the budget, and also by the Sugai Dai Ichizoku, its endowment investments, corporate partnerships, government, private, and corporate education and research grants, tuition, alumni boosters, conference and event ticketing, support and academic services, IT and library services, merchandise, research, publishing, and public donations. It adheres to a standard academic schedule which begins in mid April with graduations in mid March and includes a summer (end of July to the end of August), winter (last week of December to second week of January), and spring break between semesters. The University was established as an entity as part of the creation of the Hilo City Charter and was originally endowed with five hundred million ryu (current value two billion ryu) from the Project Hilo Committee and it was among the first structures to break ground when construction of the city began nearly three centuries ago. The urban campus in Hilo's university ward occupies five hundred acres above and below ground along the banks of the Waikoto River {flowing water}. Hilo, like many cities on Nejiro, is built above a system of utility corridors and tunnel and cave (natural and fabricated) systems that includes canals (large enough for inland barges) and subways to serve the city support systems, utilities, and services, parking, storage and cisterns, mines and underground farms, plazas, retail and residence areas, recreational areas, commercial and industrial areas, government buildings, and defensive and emergency redoubts. The Hilo Chika {underground} is built on 'islands' created by the three rivers (the Waikoto, the Quoile, and the Canawa) that cross each other and run through the city. The Chika is currently twenty percent larger than the upper city and as much as sixty meters (six levels) below ground and three levels above ground. The campus is filled with beautiful architecture, inspiring art, and state of the art facilities. It contains over ninety million square meters of lab space, rooftop farms, two world class museums, seed project botanical gardens, a world renowned art gallery, over five hundred clubs, and fifteen million books across twenty five libraries. There is an entire department dedicated to making the campus creative and it organizes dozens of film festivals, art festivals, science festivals, improvisational jam sessions, cosplay events, the drone parade, the largest book fair in the city and more. Culinary choices on campus are varied and include everything from twenty eight hour fast food kiosks, convenience stores, diners, casual restaurants, food courts, dining halls, and cafeterias, to reservation only fine dining, and rowdy pubs. Students are required to live on campus during their first two years of study so they can take part in the academic, social, cultural, and recreational programs, as well as academic advising that the school has been designed to provide. Some students spend their whole tertiary academic career here from undergraduate degree through their doctoral degree. The University is partnered with Raissonne Daigaku Byoin {hospital} in the Hilo civics ward, which has the largest trauma center on the continent and trains many of the military and civilian pararescue, combat, and emergency response medics on Nejiro; and with Raissonne Prep also located in the Hilo university ward, a primary and secondary level public boarding school for as many as three thousand students.
