Review Western Wyoming Community College
I am a Student Ambassador at Western Wyoming Community College and I have had a great experience. I love how the class sizes are much smaller than most colleges. Western is also very affordable for many students. There are many scholarship opportunities, if you qualify for them. Many out of state students are not eligible nor are out of county students able to apply for institutional scholarships. If I could change anything about Western Wyoming Community College I would offer more scholarship with a bigger range of variety so that more students can apply.
Great small class size, lots of classes to offer with many helpful professors. The college has a campus in both Green River and Rock Springs which is convenient. Low cost, wish everywhere was this affordable for the quality!
