Many students say their best memories from college come from living on-campus. Campus is more than a place to attend classes – it’s your home for four years so it should be comfortable.
Freshmen call one of two traditional residence halls home, but we offer a variety of living arrangements from single rooms to apartments for upper-level students. Resident assistants are located in every residence hall and dorms are secure, accessible either by student ID card or by the desk attendant on staff 24-hours a day. On-campus parking is available for residents. The Office of Residential Life offers a wealth of resources for our residents, including Tips for First Year Students.
Dining at King’s is good – make sure you take time to eat at one of our facilities when you’re here to visit. We offer several meal plan options and a couple of places to eat. If you want to ward off that Freshman 15 pounds, we offer quite a few athletic facilities for student use. If you should need medical attention, our Health Center is right on campus and will take care of you.
Additional support is available to student through our Academic Skills Center, Counseling Center, Academic Advisement, Campus Ministry, Career Planning, College Diversity and Financial Aid
