About Pasco-Hernando Community College
As Florida’s newest community college, Pasco-Hernando Community College combines high tech educational facilities and state-of-the-art programs with an old-fashioned focus on teaching.
With campuses located in tree-lined, intimate, rural settings,
PHCC provides all the advantages of a private liberal arts education— personalized attention, highly credentialed faculty, an honors program
for the academically gifted and small class sizes— all at an affordable
public community college price. Our AA program gives students a solid foundation in the arts and sciences with a choice of major emphasis
in teaching, business, engineering and the social and behavioral sciences.
Our Associate in Arts degree even comes with a guarantee: guaranteed admission into
one of Florida’s 11 public universities as a junior.
PHCC also provides training for more than 30 high-demand careers
in healthcare, law, business, and human services through its AS and certificate programs. Our technical programs are designed and taught
by experts in their field using the latest equipment and technology.
These fields include business, computer engineering, healthcare, human
services and law. PHCC programs can be completed in two years or less.
Ninety percent of all PHCC graduates end up working in their chosen professions.
At PHCC, we offer educational opportunity for students of
all ages and abilities. Our “Open Door” policy welcomes all high school graduates and GED recipients. PHCC also offers
GED preparation classes to prepare students to test for the GED diploma.
Because PHCC is a public-supported state institution, its fees are generally
lower than many other colleges and universities. Approximately 60 percent
of all PHCC students receive some form of financial assistance based
on financial need and/or merit.
PHCC offers day, evening, weekend and online classes for the convenience of working adults. We have four nearby locations to serve you in Brooksville, Dade City, New Port Richey and Spring Hill.
