Living on campus gives you the chance to be independent, while also becoming part of a special community. You’ll have opportunities to socialize, meet new people, get involved with a variety of activities, form relationships and learn about other cultures.
CWC’s campus is an intimate, accessible, and safe place to live and learn. Attend “Casino Night,” play ping pong or pool with students from other residence halls, learn to cook with your roommates, and develop long-lasting friendships with people from across Wyoming and around the world.
Living on campus means that you will be surrounded by fellow students, meaning that you will always have study and support groups available. You will also save on the time and costs of travel as you can easily walk to your classes, the food court, the library, campus activities, and more!
Students who live on campus have also been shown to have higher GPA’s and a higher likelihood of completing their degrees than those who live off-campus. Based off of CWC statistics from fall 2016, students living in housing were 3 times more likely to meet CWC’s standards and either re-enroll or graduate than non-housing students.

The apartment complexes are great for students who want a little more personal space. They are also available for students with families and spouses seeking their own accommodations, while remaining extremely convenient to class.
The Apartments are designed as typical apartment complexes. With one and two bedroom apartments, there are three rates available: private, split-private (2 bedroom only), and roommate living. Every attempt is made to maximize occupancy by assigning roommate living first and private apartments are only assigned after all roommate options are explored.
One-bedroom apartments have a maximum of two single students. Two-bedroom apartments have a maximum of four single students, each responsible for their own rental payments.

Read the 2023-24 Housing Contract for detailed policies about living on campus.
Options for roommate assignment include private living (Mote Hall and apartments), semi-private living (two-bedroom apartment only), or roommate living (Residence Hall and apartments). Fill out your application request carefully to provide crucial information to assist with roommate assignment. You can always choose your own roommate if you know someone coming to school with you, but if you do not, and you request roommate living, one will be assigned based on your application information.
If your roommate does not work out, CWC will work with you to provide an alternate assignment. Contact the Housing Manager for any information on a roommate or room changes and they will work with you and your roommate to either resolve the issue or make necessary changes. We only ask that you work hard at resolving any conflicts first before using a roommate change request.
Also, while the complexes are co-ed, all room/apartment assignments are done single sex. No co-habitation is allowed unless married.
Central Wyoming College has a variety of policies to address the behavior. Read the CWC Student Handbook 2023-2024 for detailed policies.
