About This School

Hinds Community College is a public community college with its main campus in Raymond, Mississippi, United States and branches in Jackson, Pearl, Utica, and Vicksburg.

At just $3,158 per year after aid, this is one of the most affordable paths to a degree or transfer in Mississippi, making it a genuinely strong option for cost-conscious students. The low median debt of $5,951 at graduation is a real advantage — you won't leave buried in loans. That said, median earnings of $30,900 a decade out suggest the outcomes are modest, so students should be intentional about where they plan to transfer or what career they're building toward.
