College of the Ozarks

The college charges no tuition for full-time students due to its student work program and donations. The program requires students to work 15 hours a week at an on-campus work station and two 40-hour work weeks during breaks. A summer work program is available to some students to cover room and board costs.[6] The college refers to itself as "Hard Work U"[7] and places emphasis on "character" education.
