Isn't Berea College in Kentucky like that? Minimal tuition and everyone's on work study.....

9. Don't Berea College students have to work? What's that all about?

Yes, every Berea student is required to work 10-15 hours per week in one of the 140 different labor departments across campus. Your labor position is chosen for you your first year, but after that you can interview with other departments if you want to work in a different position. While some portion of student labor is used to assist with the 4-year tuition scholarship (*), students can earn $110-$300 a month to help pay for books, room, board, and personal expenses.

* Everyone is awarded a 4-year, tuition scholarship

Also from the Berea College website.

Founded in 1855 as the first interracial and co-educational college in the South, Berea College promotes understanding and kinship among all people, service to communities in Appalachia and beyond, and sustainable living practices which set an example of new ways to conserve our limited natural resources.

And this...

U.S. News and World Report has named Berea College the best Comprehensive College for a Bachelor’s Degree in the South for 2006. This is the 11th time Berea College has earned a top ranking in the publication. To determine a school's overall rank, U.S. News considered academic reputation, retention, faculty resources, student selectivity, financial resources and alumni giving rate.

In addition to the top spot for Comprehensive Colleges in the South, Berea College was again among colleges and universities recognized nationally for having outstanding programs in ‘Service-learning’ and ‘Internships/Co-ops.’ Berea also was ranked fourth for the least amount of student debt upon graduation.

FYI: There are no social GLOs at Berea College.
