Laramie County Community College

What is the cost of studying for a year at Laramie County Community College?

For 2024-25, reported full-time undergraduate tuition was $3,150 for Wyoming residents and $9,450 for out-of-state students. Required fees were $1,463 for either group. That puts published tuition plus required fees at about $4,613 for a resident and $10,912 for a nonresident before housing, food, books, transportation, and personal expenses.

• Reported room and board: $9,880 for the academic year.
• Reported books and supplies: $1,200 for the academic year.
• Reported part-time tuition: $105 per credit for residents and $315 per credit for nonresidents, before applicable fees.

Adding the reported room-and-board and book estimates to tuition and required fees produces an illustrative subtotal of $15,693 for a resident or $21,993 for a nonresident. Neither is a complete individual cost of attendance: transportation and personal expenses still matter, and a commuter's living costs may look different. Students should use the college's current term-by-term tuition schedule and financial-aid cost-of-attendance budget for an enrollment decision.

Financial aid changes the amount a student ultimately pays. In 2024-25 reporting, 94% of students received some form of financial aid, while 18% had student loans; receiving aid should not be confused with borrowing. Reported average net prices varied by family income - for example, $5,979 for families earning up to $48,000 - but an individual's result depends on residency, enrollment, eligibility, living arrangements, and the aid offered. Eligible students can investigate federal grants and loans, Wyoming aid, LCCC scholarships, and military education benefits through the college's financial aid process.

What are the work-study opportunities at Laramie County Community College?

Students seeking paid work while enrolled should distinguish Federal Work-Study from an ordinary part-time job. Work-Study is a need-based federal aid program for eligible students; an award permits a student to seek qualifying work but is not a promise of a position or wages without hours worked.

The financial aid office can explain Work-Study eligibility and how qualifying openings are posted. Other campus or community jobs may be open to students without a Work-Study award. For career-related experience, students can also ask program advisers about clinical placements, internships, apprenticeships, and employer connections - opportunities that may have their own admission, scheduling, or pay rules. Career support is useful for exploring fields and preparing applications, but it should not be mistaken for a verified job-placement outcome.
