About This School

Casper College is a public institution located in Casper, Wyoming with approximately 2,204 undergraduate students enrolled. In-state tuition is $4,470 per year. Typical graduates earn $41,300 within 10 years of enrollment.

Casper College is a public community college in Casper, Wyoming. It is one of the largest and most comprehensive community colleges in the region. Established in 1945 as Wyoming's first junior college and initially located on the third floor of Natrona County High School, Casper College moved to its current site 10 years later. As of 2026, the campus consists of 28 buildings on more than 200 acres. The grounds are distinctive, with terraces that surround the modern buildings. It enrolls over 4,500 students and employs about 250 faculty.

Worth considering if you're looking for an affordable, low-risk start to your college path — at just $8,759/year average net cost and a median graduation debt of only $6,500, you won't be buried in loans. The trade-off is that median earnings sit at $41,300 a decade out, which is modest, so this makes the most sense as a stepping stone to a four-year transfer or a targeted career program rather than a final destination for high-earning fields.
