The U.S. News and World Report rankings are a testament to the work being done by our faculty, staff, and students as we continue to educate leaders for our region.”

Over one hundred years ago, Mrs. Lloyd made it her mission to educate the children of Appalachia by offering a high-quality, affordable, character-based education so students could earn a degree regardless of financial ability. Alice Lloyd College, a Grassroots Partner of SOAR, is grateful to the devoted faculty, staff, and wonderful friends from across the country who continue to make ALC’s educational opportunities possible.
