Accepted Students Day
Applied and accepted to HCC, but not sure what to do next?
Accepted Students Day will help you check off your to-do list and get you ready for the first day of the semester. If you're a student who’s also a parent, we now offer free drop-in child watch while you're on campus. All children must be registered before they can visit Itsy Bitsy Child Watch.
Before the first day of classes, to-do list required steps are marked with an asterisk (*):
- Activate your HCC account
- Fill out the 2025-26 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or follow-up with the Financial Aid office to answer questions you may have.
- Make an appointment to take the placement test*; Submit unofficial transcripts or SAT/ACT score reports by emailing them to admissions@hcc.edu.
- Register for classes*
After you register for Classes:
- Learn about resources at HCC; Academic Support and Essential Services
- Get your Student ID
- Check to see what Books & Supplies* you may need
- Pay your student bill and explore payment options
- Get a Campus Tour
- Waive Health Insurance Fee if you have comparable insurance
Let us know you are coming and get a personalized to-do list! Check everything off your list and also attend student led sessions on Campus Resources.
Accepted Students Day is a family-friendly event!
We warmly welcome you to bring your parents, guardians, partners, and children to join in the fun. While childcare is not provided unless registered through Itsy Bitsy, we will have some child-friendly activities available throughout the day, including a scavenger hunt and free books for children.
