A Place to Call Home

King’s Students have two housing options when it comes to being a student at King’s.

1.1.1.1. King’s ResidenceKing’s ResidenceKing’s ResidenceKing’s Residence The King’s University College provides excellent facilities for students who choose to live on campus. Students are not required to live on campus, but are encouraged to consider this option because of its many advantages. First year students under the age of 21 who do not live with parents during the school year are advised to live on campus. In the friendly surroundings of the Residence, students experience the best of campus life: an enhanced sense of community and support due to increased opportunities for social and spiritual interaction. A wide variety of spiritual and recreational activities are planned and hosted by the University College and Residence Staff and students. Two residences are on The King’s University College campus: 1. Tower Residence

The eight-story Residence tower provides housing that is safe, comfortable and convenient. Two Internet hook-ups are available in all rooms. Students will share a large room with another person of the same gender. Common lounge areas and prepaid-card laundry equipment are available to all resident students. Telephone is included. Students are responsible for their own bed linens, task lighting and accessory furnishings. All residents in the Tower must purchase a meal plan option.

2. Apartment Residence

A second student residence, intended for returning and senior students, provides suites of 6 bedrooms. Applicants to this residence must have completed a minimum of 24 credits or have been admitted as a mature student. Meal plans offered through food services are optional. Students who have special dietary needs may be eligible to apply for the apartment residence upon approval by the Student Life Office. A written request can be submitted to the Coordinator of Residence Life.

In general, the residence is available for full-time students only. Any requests for exceptions to this policy must be submitted, in writing, to the Coordinator of Residence Life. On-campus housing is offered on a first-come, first-served basis. Students are encouraged to apply early.
