HOW TO APPLY FOR FUNDING
Complete your FAFSA.
Students seeking financial assistance must apply each academic year. Start by
completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) online at fafsa.ed.gov
after filing your required federal tax returns (including those of your parents, if you’re a
dependent). In order for HCC to receive your FAFSA results, be sure to provide the HCC
school code: 007870.
Check HawkNet for updates.
Check the MY DOCUMENTS section in your HawkNet account for updates on any
missing documents and/or processes needed to complete your financial aid application.
Remember to also check your HCC HawkMail for important notices and updates from
Financial Aid. HawkMail is HCC’s official form of communication, so it is important that
you check it regularly.
Make sure your application is in early!
