We offer more than 140 academic and technical programs designed to lead you toward a fulfilling career or a seamless transfer to a four-year university. Whether you are a recent high school graduate or an adult learner returning to gain new skills, you belong here.

Students First

At Casper College, “Students First” is more than a slogan, it is the lens through which we make every decision. We believe that education is a partnership, not just a transaction. A “Students First” culture means:

  • Holistic Support: We are committed to the growth and well-being of every learner.
  • Accessible Excellence: We prioritize keeping tuition affordable while maintaining high academic standards.
  • Individualized Attention: With a 14:1 student-to-faculty ratio, you aren’t just a number; you’re a member of a supportive community.
  • Empowering Experiences: We provide hands-on, experiential learning that prepares you for the real world.

Our Core Values: Our daily work is guided by these fundamental principles:

  • Integrity: Hard work, accountability, and open communication.
  • People: Growth, support, and positive relationships.
  • Diversity: Thought, culture, and experience.
  • Forward Thinking: Intentional, innovative, and sustainable planning.
  • Community: Partnership and service.

A Beautiful College Campus

Casper College sits on a hill and at a high point in Casper, set against the backdrop of Casper Mountain rising to nearly 8,000 ft. The campus encompasses over 200 acres and 28. Wildlife is common on campus and you’ll want to catch the morning sunrise or the evening sunset no matter the time of year.

Already an exceptional value, Casper College offers low tuition and fees and a wide range of student financial-aid options that make college even more affordable. Instructors at Casper College offer one-on-one advising and expansive learning opportunities in a challenging and rewarding environment that offers small class sizes and individualized services.

Casper College offers something for everyone and delivers a powerful and fulfilling college experience.
