Hancock had its accreditation status fully reaffirmed through 2023 by the Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges (ACCJC). Approximately 12,000 credit students enroll each semester at one of the college's four locations in Santa Maria, Lompoc, Solvang, or at Vandenberg Air Force Base. Recently, the college has undergone more than $150 in renovations and upgrades thanks to Bond Measure I, passed by community voters in 2006.
