Accepted Students

Congratulations and welcome to HACC, Pennsylvania’s first and largest community college! You have successfully taken the first step to changing your life and your family tree. You should be very proud of yourself - we know we are!

Once you’ve activated your HACC accounts, as instructed in your acceptance email, please follow the steps below to continue towards enrollment.

1. Follow the instructions sent to your HAWKMail student inbox prompting you to complete placement testing (if applicable) and start your new student onboarding course.
   
   You may need to take a placement test for either math or English. Placement testing is an assessment to determine class eligibility and ensure that you can enroll in the best-fit classes. Review our FAQs and tips to help you prepare for the placement test.
   
   For questions, please call 717-780-2513 or email hacctesting@hacc.edu.
    
2. Register for and attend YOUR Level Up.
   Level Up is an all-in-one orientation, career/transfer, and advising/registration event. You will be prompted to register for this event within your new student onboarding course. 
   
   This is a mandatory step in the enrollment process. Please visit our New Student Orientation (NSO) page for more details. 
    
3. Register for classes.
   You will meet with an academic advisor to select and register for your classes during your Level Up session.
    
4. Pay your bill and review financial aid (if applicable).
   To pay your tuition, you may submit payment online through your myHACC portal.
   
   Helpful information and resources include:
   • Tuition Due Dates
   • How do I pay my bill?
   • Payment Plan

If you applied for financial aid, please check your HAWKMail and myHACC accounts frequently for updates. We will share any requirements that need to be fulfilled for financial aid award processing.

The tuition and fees must be paid by the deadline for your enrollment to be complete. Please contact financialaid@hacc.edu with any questions.

Are you a veteran?

Are you a guest student?
