    Am learning a lot

    Hawkeye Community College is a great place to go if you want to learn a lot, on your own time. There are many different variations of classes you can take, and many different majors you can choose from. Just from walking from one class to the next, I feel that I have learned a lot, just from watching other people. There are so many different types of people attending this friendly college that you will most likely see all of your friends. All of the teachers here are very helpful, and love to take the time to help you out if you are not understanding what is going on in the class, or how to do your homework. Hawkeye Community College is a great community college to attend if you would like a small, friendly college where the teachers work with you, your friends are all right around the corner and you learn a lot.
    Am enjoying being here

    I enjoy being at Hawkeye Community College because I love the fact that the teachers will always be willing to help you, no matter what the circumstances. Also, there are many different student activities to attend, making it easier to meet new people, or just have some fun in between your classes. There is such an enjoyable energy at Hawkeye Community College. I love the fact that everyone is friendly, and is willing to help you out if you feel that you need the help. The staff is friendly, and always willing to help you with your needs, making this friendly little college so enjoyable.
    Bang for the buck

    Hawkeye Community College is worth the money. I honestly thought that I would be in over my head when I wanted to attend college. I thought that I would be spending so much money that I felt I would never be out of debt after I graduate. Once I started looking into Hawkeye, I realized that not only is Hawkeye a great school with staff ready to help with all of your problems, but it is also very affordable. You spend about as much for your whole degree here that you would spend in one semester at most four year colleges. I believe that Hawkeye Community College is worth your money no matter if you are going to live in the apartments, or off campus. You will be satisfied with how much less you will be in debt after you graduate and also will be wowed at how inexpensive Hawkeye really is.

    Getting a college education is an investment in your future! Hawkeye Community College is less expensive than the other colleges in the area and the Financial Aid office can help you determine what assistance may be available to you. More than 82% of Hawkeye’s students receive some form of financial aid. Hawkeye is a great way to save money if you get your general education classes and transfer to get your major.

    Did learn a lot

    I learned a lot in my history classes, Russian civilization, coaching classes, math, science, and educational classes. Each of my classes were beneficial to me and I learned a lot. I would say that none of my classes were a waste of time.
    Did enjoy being here

    I loved it here. All the buildings are in one big circle, so not very spread out, so easy to run into friends in different majors. Campus is pretty small and class sizes are small, which I like. There were also a lot of events/activities throughout the week held on campus and there were many clubs/organizations that students could get involved in. I was involved in the Student Senate, Student Ambassadors, Hawkeye Activities Team, Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society, Education Club, Multicultural Club, Latino Club, and cross country club. I also tutored in the TRIO program; it was a great place to build leadership, professional, and academic skills.
    Bang for the buck

    It is very cheap to attend here. Books are expensive, but most textbooks are expensive. The good thing at Hawkeye is that can return books at the end of the semester and get quite a bit of money back. Plus, they have a lot of scholarships listed on their web page for students to apply for. I actually got a full ride here because I was the top of my class, so that was nice.
    Tips for prospective students

    This is a great place for students who like small surroundings and small class sizes. Plus, there is furniture in the Student Brock Center where students can hang out and there is a fitness room in there as well. I would also recommed you take a campus tour around the campus, so will know where everything is located.
    Great for these types of students

    This is a great place to build leadership, professional, and academic skills before transfering to a university. This is a great transition from high school before attend a university. Plus, one can get thier general ed/liberal arts courses out of the way for cheaper amount of money before attending a university. It also gives one more time to think about what they want to do if they don't know what they want to major in yet.
