Late courses available at Western

Western Wyoming Community College has late start courses available to students who missed the August 26 deadline, but still wish to make progress in their studies.

Western is an award-winning institution and the Online Learning Program was rated number one in Wyoming, and number three in the nation in 2019. Additionally, Western was ranked the most affordable college in Wyoming, whether students are from out-of-state, online students, traditional or non-traditional students.

Late start courses are available as in-person courses or online format depending on the course. To see a complete list of the 71 late start courses at Western visit http://www.westernwyoming.edu/latestart.

Western has a number of financial aid options available to students. In addition, Wyoming’s Governor Gordon recently announced two new grant programs to help those impacted by COVID-19 cover some of the costs of attending college. Students who are enrolled at Western still have the opportunity to apply for the grants.

The CARES Wyoming Adult Grant is for Wyoming residents ages 25-64 who are unemployed or underemployed due to COVID-19.

The CARES Wyoming College Grant is for those people or their families who have been impacted financially or become unemployed as a result of COVID-19. Qualified applicants from both in-state and out-of-state students are eligible to apply.

“At Western, we are always striving to provide more and different opportunities for our students. By offering these late-start courses we hope to be able to meet the needs of a population that might not have been ready for our August 24th opening, but would prefer to not wait until next Spring,” Stu Moore, registrar at Western said.

The Grant Funding is only available for the Fall 2020 Semester only, so interested people must act quickly to take advantage of these opportunities.
