BARTLESVILLE, Okla. (AP) -- A private Oklahoma university plans to auction a year of its tuition on eBay next month.

Oklahoma Wesleyan University executive vice president Bob Myers says officials from the online auction site have told the school that they don't know of any other college or university that has tried such an auction.

A year of tuition, room and board at Oklahoma Wesleyan in Bartlesville costs about $23,000. The university has an enrollment of about 1,030 students and offers 39 majors and 24 minors.

The auction will be open to anyone, including current students.

Bidding for the auction will start February 4th at one penny and continue through February 10th.
