Am learning a lot
The professors are great, every one I had were very helpful and taught well. I am a photography major and the photo professors are such special people, I am so happy I went to HCC first to learn from them. Every photography major there come out pros in the Dark Room when they leave.
Am enjoying being here
HCC have great clubs to join and awesome events. Just recently the music majors had a Jazz concert for all to go. The environment is warm and friendly. I have made so many new friends from my classes.
Bang for the buck
HCC is pretty affordable, financial aid helps though.
Tips for prospective students
Make sure to tour the campus before your classes start. Also, parking can get pretty ridiculous so leave your house early to get a good spot.
Great for these types of students
HCC is great for students who do not know what to major in. The liberal arts program at HCC is a great start for any indecisive college student.

Has the best online learning program in the area. I loved the flexibility of taking classes on line and selection available for online learning is amazing! I also really liked the summer sessions classes I have taken.
Tips for prospective students
Always follow up on paperwork that has been submitted, I have had several things lost from my file and reappear later.
Academic Rigor
The program I am entering in for September is very competitive, only 22 out of 250 applicants made it. The building classes and gen eds are wonderful and move at a manageable pace
Food and Dining
Good selection for all, tasty things to choose from.
Bang for the buck
I am attending for my second degree and its only going to cost me about 15,000 grand total in tuition and fees for two years of full time study. My degree is going to put me in well paying position so i would say greal value here!
Great for these types of students
Non-traditional, cant say enough about online learning, they make it easy for anyone to be able to find time to further their education.
Clubs and Activities
Lots to choose from!
Campus Safety
Would like to see more of the officers then just patroling in their cars
