Only 12 of Hawaii's colleges have more than 1,000 students, and 6 of these are community colleges. Hawaii also has 7 colleges and adult education schools with fewer than 100 students.
These schools cover a wide range of disciplines, as you can see from their names: Hawaii Theological Seminary, Hollywood Beauty College, Hawaii Institute of Hair Design, World Medicine Institute, Institute of Clinical Acupuncture & Oriental Med, Hawaii Technology Institute, and the Golf Academy of Hawaii.
Hawaii also has a relatively small number of its population enrolled in colleges and adult education institutions.

Hawaii does have one large college, the University of Hawaii, which has approximately 24,000 students enrolled.
