Barton County Community College

Barton offers scholarships to military servicemembers and veterans that covers the cost of attendance. The reformatted course delivery fits Soldiers' schedules at the respective posts. Barton actively pursues grants to provide training to assist with a Soldier's transition to civilian life, such as Hazardous Materials Management, at military installations across the country at no cost to the student. The college's presence at Fort Riley began in 1985, and has been heralded as a blessing to the fort and a contributor to the fort's readiness. Barton also contracts with the US Army to provide military training, like Combat Lifesaver.
