Sorry, you are incorrect. Hillman is based on Spelman College. The school that is shown on the show is Spelman College. The show was actually filmed at Spelman the first year.

Bill Cosby has close ties with Spelman. During this period he gave the school 20 million dollars.

It's was a mixture of the top HBCUs...you can argue Howard, Hampton or Spelman/Morehouse. For one, Debbie Allen went to Howard so she could only draw inspiration from one place Two, Hillman was supposed to be in Virginia & close to the water like Hampton. Then three, it was actually filmed using the AUC (campus for Clark, Spelman, Morris Brown & Morehouse) for exterior shots.
