Currently three universities provide opportunities for people to complete Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees while staying in our community. All of these universities provide courses in our area and have transfer policies that accept EWC associate degrees. Therefore a student can start with EWC’s lower cost, high quality courses and then continue on toward a higher degree without leaving home. EWC also works closely with other universities and colleges to help students transfer courses and degrees easily. Call (307) 532.8238 for information about the ease of transfer to Chadron State College, Black Hills State University, University of Colorado, and other colleges.

 

University of Wyoming

The University of Wyoming maintains an outreach center on EWC’s Torrington campus. Students who plan to transfer to the University of Wyoming should be aware of a number of things that make the process a simple matter.

• Common Course Numbering - The University of Wyoming and all seven Wyoming Community Colleges have adopted a common course numbering system for equivalent courses. A student can count on English 1010 having the same number and title at all schools.
• Transfer Guide - Students may refer to the transfer guide to identify transfer course equivalents and how they fit into the UW University Studies Program requirements.
• Classes Identified as fulfilling University Studies coursework - The University of Wyoming has University Studies requirements for students in any major or college. EWC has classes that meet all of these requirements in the first two years.
• Articulation Agreement - EWC Students who graduate with Associate of Arts (A.A.) or Associate of Science (A.S.) degrees will automatically be accorded Junior Standing at the University of Wyoming and will have met all freshman and sophomore level general education requirements.
