Reporting-period change
What changed in 2024
Hawaii Community College increased from 0 to 1 reported on-campus incidents between the 2023 and 2024 reporting years in the U.S. Department of Education OPE Campus Safety Survey.
This is a change in reported incidents, not a measure of individual safety. Enrollment, reporting practice, and category coverage can affect the count.
See national reporting-year changesWhat changed between 2023 and 2024
Reported on-campus incidents at Hawaii Community College rose from 0 to 1. The increase shows up in Motor Vehicle Theft (0 to 1).
This describes reported incidents, not crime. Clery counts move with reporting policy, awareness campaigns and how a campus staffs its security authorities, so a rise can reflect better capture of reports and a fall can reflect worse capture. One year of movement at a single campus is not a trend.
What actually gets reported at Hawaii Community College
Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 2 Clery Act categories here: Burglary and Motor Vehicle Theft. Burglary accounts for most of them.
The remaining 9 categories were reported with no on-campus incidents, among them Aggravated Assault, Arson, Fondling and Incest. Under the Clery Act that zero is an affirmative report that nothing in the category occurred, not an absence of data, which is why the table below lists those rows rather than dropping them.
Counts describe incidents reported under the Clery Act for the on-campus geography. Reporting practice varies between institutions, so counts are not a direct measure of relative safety.

Cost context
Where Hawaii Community College sits on price and outcomes
At $8,942, Hawaii Community College's reported average net price is cheaper than 28% among 18 Hawaii colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $11,856.

- average net price

- Hawaii median
- 2.8×
- six-year earnings to median debt
- $7,419
- reported income-bracket spread
Aid here is steeply income-scaled. Families reporting under $30,000 of income record a net price of $7,964, while those above $110,000 record $15,383 - roughly 1.9 times as much. A published average of $8,942 therefore describes very few families well; the bracket nearest your own income is the more useful figure.
Median reported earnings six years after entry are $29,704, roughly 3.3 times a year of net price. That is a workable ratio, though it says nothing about how long the programme takes to finish. Only 32% complete within six years. Most students here do not finish, which is the single most important number on this page for anyone weighing the cost.
Average net price reflects grant and scholarship aid for aided students, not a personal offer. Earnings cover former students who received federal aid; neither measure predicts an individual's outcome.
