Northwest College offers 2-year associate's degrees, and is located in Powell, Wyoming, near Yellowstone National Park. Northwest College was founded in 1946. It was initially called the "University of Wyoming Northwest Center", but University of Wyoming support was discontinued in 1950.

The school has a handful of sports teams, the Trappers, competing in men's and women's basketball, women's volleyball, wrestling and rodeo. The longest-running program is the men's basketball team, which began play in 1947. Among the program's products is John Johnson (basketball), who was a first-round draft pick of the Cleveland Cavaliers in 1970 and played in the NBA until 1982.
