Berea College gives students an edge and a chance to beat the odds. Unlike other colleges and universities, we admit only academically gifted, low-income students and provide them with a world-class education. All students receive a four-year tuition scholarship, a campus job, and an opportunity to serve their college community and beyond. That’s the Berea Way.

No tuition. Academic excellence. Hard work. You help students such as Tyler, Konul, Phil, and Geri live the Berea Way.
