The plan pays 100% resident rate tuition and mandatory fees (base fees applicable to all students) at state sponsored community colleges and the University of Wyoming.  At a private institution within the state or an institution having an agreement with the DOD (Air University Associate to Baccalaureate Cooperative: AU-ABC), the plan pays the AVERAGE of UW and Community College full time tuition and fees per semester period. The amount changes each academic year.
