Alice Lloyd College is a private work-study institution located in the Appalachian Mountains of eastern Kentucky in the rural community of Pippa Passes. Founded in 1923 by Alice Lloyd and June Buchanan as Caney Junior College, the school evolved into a four-year college in 1982 while maintaining its distinctive mission of serving students from the central Appalachian region. The college operates a mandatory student work program where all full-time students work 10-20 hours per week to offset educational costs, continuing its historical commitment to making education accessible to mountain students. Based on a 175-acre mountainside campus, Alice Lloyd College specializes in teacher education and business programs, while maintaining a strong liberal arts foundation. The institution provides guaranteed tuition for students from its 108-county service area across five states and requires all full-time students to live on campus, unless they reside with immediate family within commuting distance.
