How to Apply

We are excited to have you join our Honolulu Community College (HonCC) ‘ohana!

If you are transferring within the UH System…

If you are currently attending another University of Hawai‘i System college (UH Mānoa, Hilo, West O‘ahu or any of the Community Colleges in Hawai‘i), please submit the Change of Home Institution Form (PDF). This form allows us to change your official record to reflect HonCC as your “home institution.” Your home institution should be the campus in which you intend on receiving your degree and any financial support (i.e. financial aid, veterans benefits). When you change your home campus, any funding awarded to you from your previous institution will be cancelled. Funding availability/award amounts may be different at your new institution. Submit the Change of Home Institution form via email or fax. You may also drop if off at the Admissions Office.
