Herkimer's Online program is wonderful for non-matriculated students who are seeking to earn college credits or further their knowledge. They provide all the information you need to help set you up and ready for their online courses. If any issues arise with tution payment or class regisration, their professional staff will contact you immediately to help. I highly recommend!

Great school with great people. I didn't live on campus as I was an adult learner and they were really supportive. This place is affordable - especially if you are living offcampus and don't need any food plans!

Great lerning on line a few professors need a reality check. I would be more impressed by their stupidity if THEY had a Harvard degree.

The cool thing about Herkimer is that they don't just specialize in one field of study. They take the time and resources to make every program they have better.

HCCC is situated in a nice rural village. The campus is on top of a hill overlooking the village. It is very scenic. My wife attends HCCC now and really likes it. I teach some classes there and really enjoy it. It is also a powerhouse in sports. People come from all over the world to play on their teams.

The students are disrespectful, and the faculty isn't much better, the school basically only advertises to people from New York city.
