Dear Neighbors,

There has never been a better time to attend Houston Community College to pursue a college certificate or degree! Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, HCC has shifted many on-campus courses to online classes with more ways to learn now than ever before! Enrolling is easy by visiting: hccs.edu/now
Students can choose from:

Flex Campus: Students attend online or in person at the scheduled dates and times
Lab-Based Courses: HCC’s skills-based, hands-on lab courses host fewer students per section to enable social distancing
Online Anytime: Students conveniently take classes online any time. These are traditional online classes, and students are never required to be physically present on campus
Online on a Schedule: Students take classes online at scheduled class time and never required to be physically present on campus
