Alice Lloyd College Reviews
Rating 3.08 out of 5 125 reviews
My experience at Alice Lloyd has been great. The staff and students have made the transition from high school student to college student so easy for me. I thought I would struggle leaving home but I have done so much better than I ever expected. Alice Lloyd allowed me to room with a girl that I already knew before college and I think that helped me as well. Alice Lloyd feels like home to me. I feel like I fit in very well.
So far, my time in Alice Lloyd has shown me exactly who I am, both internally and externally. After fully separating from my family my freshman semester here, I have been left to develop completely by myself in the most relieving yet challenging period yet, however Alice Lloyd College has done nothing except carry me through and aide me in every way possible through this journey. I have met other students who I have to say are some of the most honest and selfless people I have ever met, the professors are completely open to one-on-one talks and are able to help anyone as needed, and the administration is completely hospitable always. I only wished this college was not centered in some of the most rural parts of Appalachia, that way going off campus was easier and safer at certain times, and that there is a greater diversity in majors, such as a Psychology or Political Science major that Alice Lloyd currently lacks. However, I do not regret coming to Alice Lloyd College at all.
Great school with great faculty and professors. It's a small campus, but it has a warm, friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend this school to incoming students.
I am so excited to attend Alice Lloyd College this fall semester! During the tour, I felt this would be the perfect college for me, it's small and personable. Every single person we spoke with was able to answer questions or offer advice! I can tell they are really cheering on the students and want to see them suceed.
Wow, it must’ve been cheap to go there!
No, not really. With textbooks, affording to live, and room and board it still cost a pretty penny, even though tuition was free! Around $30,000. And you still have to work your tuition off don’t forget that.
Coming out as a Lesbian
Wow that was a hard one. Talk about the shock of once being a holy roller to now forming your own opinions and beliefs. I don’t miss getting scrutinized and pulled into the dean’s office for hand holding.
Maybe it was because I was locked up with girls the entire time I was there since women and men can’t visit each other (in each other’s dorms) unsupervised? Maybe that’s why I’m gay
The Rules Didn’t Apply to Certain People
This might be the best thing about it. If you’re an athlete, it does not matter if you get caught with alcohol.
The only good thing about going there
Professors and long lasting friendships. The administration, awful.

If I could give Alice Lloyd a one star rating I would. The people at the school are rude and unhelpful 99.9 percent of the time. The majority of the students are white hicks and the academia is watered down for them. The administrative staff are highly unhelpful and unprofessional. The academic advisors are no help and guide students to take classes that only apply to ALC even if they plan on transferring. The required work study is a sham as well. You must complete the 10 hours a week they require, but you aren’t necessarily compensated for the time you’re essentially forced to work over that time. The living situations are horrendous and the students are required to maintain their dorm halls. The college is essentially a scam and no one has any idea where you’re talking about when you state you went there although the professors and administration here preach about the exclusivity of the campus. Waste of money and time here.
I only took online classes during the COVID-19 period, but it proved to a successful experience as I was still able to learn and grow through the semester.
Alice Lloyd College is a small college with a “home-like” feel. With a personal connection with professors, the educational experience can be extremely successful. Small class sizes paired with faculty that genuinely care about your progress as a student provide tremendous learning progress for each student.
At this college we work to help pay for the cost of going to college. It is a small campus so everyone knows one another. The teachers are willing to work one on one with you and the library has a tutoring group for any class a student may have trouble in. Further more each building on campus is ran by students who's hours range from 10 hours a week to 20 hours a week. Each student is required to work in order to be a student here, and if your time is not met you will be dismissed from the college.
My first semester was great. I love how close everything is. I love the small atmosphere. All the staff are friendly and helping!
I liked that they are very dedicated to academics and athletics. They don’t focus more on one or the other. The dorms could use some work.
I loved the family atmosphere at Alice Lloyd. The administration office is AMAZING. I do believe that the science department needs boosting. I think there should be more science professors and more classes to choose. Besides that, it’s a great place that is nestled into the mountain and the faculty is so helpful and great!
Alice Lloyd College is a wonderful college. Alice Lloyd offers excellent educational experiences. The thing I love about Alice Lloyd is, the people there become your family and they will do anything in their power to help you succeed.
I absolutely love Alice Lloyd College. Being in a Christian environment is awesome and I feel as if i fit in very well. I also enjoy the activites I take part in such as: cheerleading, tennis and cross country

Good hangout in student center and dorm lobby
