Students who earn an associate of arts or associate of science degree at any of Wyoming's seven community colleges will be able to receive automatic admission to the University of Wyoming. State higher educational leaders announced Wednesday that beginning this fall, qualified students will need only to complete an admissions form and provide other necessary information to transfer from Wyoming community colleges to UW. There will be no application fee, and UW will offer counseling on academic requirements and financial aid, as well as other transition support. UW President Tom Buchanan says the new policy is a significant step forward in expanding higher education opportunities for students in Wyoming. Wyoming Community College Commission Chairman Larry Atwell says the policy will encourage students to complete their community college degrees.
