What Students Are Saying

My tips for prospective students is to meet with the counselors constantly.
Cire Ailuj from Kailua Kona, HI
If you like the small, laid back college/school scene Hawaii Community College is a great place. You get to meet and get to know so much other people. Unlike big universities you only know a portion of the faculty and students, but here at Hawaii Community College, you can pretty much get to know everyone.
Deana from Lanai City, HI
Try seeking a course that interests you and you will find that coming to school is not at all tiring.
Darlene from Pahoa, HI
Always be positive when learning something new because you can only gain when you learn. If you go in with a bad attitude you will only get a bad response back. Most of all, do not commit to something if you cannot commit 100 percent.
Stacy from Hilo, HI
I would tell those thinking of attending that they made a good choice .
NICOLE from Waikoloa, HI
Ask questions and ask for help if you dont understand
Jessica from Hilo, HI
I chose to attend HawCC not just because of the lower tuition cost, but also because of the smaller more personal classes, staff, campus activities, and fellow classmates. Meet with an academic advisor and see what options there are.
Raynell from Hilo, HI
File for financial aid as early as possible to receive as much funding as possible. Complete all your pre-acceptance and student enrollment requirements as soon as possible, procrastinating isn't a smart move. Meet all your deadlines and never be afraid to ask questions.
