Steps in the HACC CHS Process

HACC CHS Website

Mr. Fake will help all students through this process, including holding an application day to complete the HACC application. Please be aware of all the steps in the process, but know that not all will be completed at once, as there will be some lag time between when you complete your application and when HACC issues acceptances to the program. Typically, the rest of the process occurs closer to the start of the new school year. You must complete all parts of this process to receive college credit.

Should you have any questions, please let Mr. Fake know, and he will do his best to answer them. Please also feel free to contact HACC directly utilizing the contact information below.

Please check your email over the summer for any updates and information HACC may send. For this program, you only need to be concerned with updates related to the College in the High School (CHS) program.

Placement testing, high school grades, and/or SAT, ACT, or PSAT scores help determine your eligibility to enroll in certain classes. Visit the HACC Placement Testing webpage for more details, including exemptions.
