Best school I've ever attended!
Overall 4.7
This community college might just be the best CC in the whole east coast. It is extremely safe and the STEM building is the best building I have ever seen for a college in general. The professors are extremely qualified and in some cases, much more than need me. Great STEM programs, facilities and top ranked health programs. Good starting choice.

I graduated in 2016 and I thought it was a great campus then but they have continued to build in recent years and it's even nicer now. Stopped by a week ago to look around, the campus is very clean and the facilities are well-kept. In general, the professors were great. This is the place to be for an affordable associate's degree in the area.

For a community college, this is a great school. They have a lot of programs to help students with children like a daycare, scholarships to cover daycare, and also grants to cover outside day care centers. The campus is beautiful and safe. Ample parking and they lots of activities throughout the semester.

I left HCC for university almost a year ago and I definitely miss it. Many fun events if you keep up with them. Many had free food, how could I not go? The professors are hit or miss but going to the tutoring center helps a lot. Student worker jobs are also a good opportunity. Also HCC really prepares you for uni. I feel like uni is easier.

Some of the staff isn't as friendly as others, but overall it's a safe school with clean buildings and fun, free events to attend.
Overall 4
Overall it's a nice school as far as a community college goes. My only real complaint is that it doesn't have many clubs to choose from. However, HCC makes up for that by having different student events to choose from every week.

Going to this college is a gamble. If you know exactly what you want your career to be then this is the perfect stepping stone. Unfortunately for those that do not know they will be disappointed and frustrated. Over 75% of the credits do not transfer including nursing and cyber security courses. This place is nothing but a money trap.
Overall 1.5
This school is not somewhere I would recommend. The staff does not know what's even going on at their own school when it comes to what programs they offer and what classes you need to take for your degree. They turn a two year school into a four year or more school! HORRIBLE!
Overall 1.5
I strongly feels that this college is more worried about looks and appearances then actually taking care of the students. Basically this college likes to baby the students and majority of the teachers feel the same way. I more so believe that this college needs to get rid of these old folks on the college board and get new people in!!!

Lot of "eccentric" people at this college and if you don't conform to their "eccentric" personalities then woe to you.
Overall 2
Too many reserved spots for "Staff" which is always empty. Do not take online classes here. The teachers, if you can address them as such are pathetic at best! Any where would be better than this hell hole. Prisoners get better education than this place.Admissions office is useless at best but unfortunately you need them to heard you around.

None.
