HANK ID Number

Your HANK ID Number is your unique, permanent, seven-digit HFC Student/Employee ID number. Your HANK ID Number is used on many official HFC forms. Your HANK ID Number might begin with zeros to make it seven digits long (example: 0499654). These zeros are part of the official number.

Your HANK ID is a permanent Student/Employee ID number stored in the HANK database system. This number should appear on all of your HFC documents, and is the fastest way for HFC staff to check your information when you have a problem or question. Students can also get this information from their instructor, or by contacting the Welcome Center.

You can see your HANK ID Number in your Profile information once you log in to the Student Portal.
