Hudson is Home

Located in the most ethnically diverse, densely populated, and dynamic area of the United States, Hudson County Community College (HCCC) reflects the vibrancy, resilience and determination of its residents and its history.

The Admissions Department is dedicated to serving and assisting students through the enrollment process at HCCC. Best of all, applying to HCCC is easy.


HCCC serves its diverse communities with inclusive programs and services that promote student success, and social and economic mobility. The College operates from three campuses in New Jersey located just across the Hudson River from Manhattan.

Viewed by thousands as a promise of a better life, HCCC offers programs that provide pathways to baccalaureate degrees and/or fulfilling and sustainable careers in today’s global society. There are more than 70 degree and certificate programs.

Transfer pathways with every major four-year college and university in the greater New Jersey-New York area accommodate seamless transfer of credits for further undergraduate and graduate education.

It’s no wonder that HCCC students often refer to classmates, faculty and staff as family, and attest that “Hudson is Home.”
