The University of Wyoming is a land-grant university located in Laramie, Wyoming, situated on Wyoming's high plains, at an elevation of 7,200 feet (2194 m), between the Laramie and Medicine Bow mountain ranges. The university first opened in September 1886 and is the only educational institution in Wyoming that offers bachelor's and graduate degrees. The university also offers outreach education in counties throughout Wyoming.
The University has five types of housing available for students. Primary among these are the four main residence halls - Orr, White, Downey and McIntyre. All four residence halls are connected together via Washakie Center (named for Chief Washakie), which contains the main dining hall and other student services. Two other residence halls (dorms) - Crane and Hill - house upperclassmen exclusively. Married students are provided the opportunity to live in townhomes east of War Memorial Stadium and the university has off-campus apartments (Spanish Walk) available to upperclassmen. All incoming freshmen are expected to live in one of the main residence halls, but dispensation can be made for those with off-campus housing.
