Course Numbering System

The courses at Central Wyoming College are identified by a set of course department abbreviations and numbers assigned from a statewide catalog. All Wyoming community colleges and the University of Wyoming use the same common course department abbreviations and numbers to identify similar courses. Courses with the same department abbreviation and course number have been judged to be generally equivalent in content and purpose throughout the state.

Course department abbreviations precede the course numbers in the subject area. Course numbers between 0001 – 0999 indicate that the content of the course is primarily a review (pre-college level). The purpose of these courses is to improve skills basic to education. These courses cannot satisfy program graduation requirements and are not generally transferable to other colleges or universities. Courses numbered below 1000 will not be used to compute honor roll.

Courses numbered 1000 – 5999 indicate that the content of the course is at the college level. These courses may be applied toward completion of a program of study.
