Costs and Financial Aid

A College for our Community!

A college education is an excellent investment in your future. A degree, diploma, or certificate will pay off throughout your career—in higher salaries, better professional opportunities, and personal satisfaction. 

HCTC is dedicated to providing you with a high quality, affordable education.  We believe that everyone should have access to higher education, and we offer a range of options to assist you in achieving your goals.  Through the offerings of federal and state grants, work-study opportunities, loan programs, scholarships and payment plans, students are able to obtain the education they desire.

The HCTC Financial Aid Office offers students an opportunity to seek answers by using our Live Chat feature.  The chat will be monitored Monday through Friday (except holidays and college closings) between the hours of 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.  The chat feature is designed to assist students with quick answers.  For issues requiring more lengthy research or discussion, you are encouraged to visit the HCTC Financial Aid Office in person.
