Alice Lloyd College Founded in 1923, ALC is a private, four-year liberal arts work college in Eastern Kentucky. It also grants students the opportunity to pay for their education.

Alice Lloyd College is one of the most distinctive liberal arts institutions in the Appalachian region. Alice Lloyd awards tuition guarantees for residents of 108 Central Appalachian counties in its service area (KY, OH, TN, VA, WV), regardless of income, who are eligible for admission. The College provides high quality educational opportunities primarily for students with outstanding leadership potential for effective service to the surrounding mountain region regardless of the student's ability to pay. All students are required to work in the College's Student Work Program. The program requires every full-time student to work a minimum of 160 hours per semester at an on-campus or off-campus job. These jobs are varied and all students are paid at the prevailing minimum wage rate. All on-campus jobs are necessary to the normal operations of the College and the off-campus jobs help provide needed services in the surrounding communities. The program is designed to teach students the meaning of responsible leadership, self-discipline, and self-reliance. It also enhances the total educational program through the teaching of skills, responsibilities, attitudes, and habits associated with work. Many alumni have gone on to complete graduate and professional programs at little or no personal cost through the continued support from Alice Lloyd College. A large number of these graduates have returned to the mountains as teachers, physicians, attorneys, and other leaders of their communities, fulfilling founder Alice Spencer Geddes Lloyd's dictum: "The leaders are here."
