HCC Opticianry Online Orientation



 Part 2 - HCC Website/ Hawknet Webadvisor


Read:

Knowing where to obtain necessary information about your courses and program is only part of the equation. Once this information is gathered it is necessary to put it to use. Being a Student of Hillsborough Community College requires you to be proactive in your progression through your program of study.

HCC provides a comprehensive website for Students to manage their records, registration and other documents and accounts. Students manage their personal records through HAWKNET-WebAdvisor.

HAWKNET allows students to access information regarding:

• User Accounts
• Financial Information
• Financial Aid
• Registration
• Academic Profile
• Communication

All attempts are made to keep this area of the HCC Website current. The HCC Hawknet Website is not managed by the HCC Opticianry Program. Corrections to any discrepancies on your account and records within Hawknet are the responsibility of the Student and the HCC Admissions and Records Department.

You may open the HCC Website in another browser window to follow along with the instructional video or you may watch the video first and explore the HCC Website afterward.
