About

Welcome to King’s University College, where a close-knit community of 3,500 students thrives in an environment designed for personalized learning.

Established in 1954, King’s affiliation with Western University grants you access to a wide array of services, classes and programs, ultimately culminating in a prestigious Western degree.

Nestled just one block away from Western University, our campus offers the best of both worlds. With the convenience of a free shuttle bus or a leisurely stroll, you can seamlessly navigate between King’s and Western, taking advantage of the resources each institution has to offer. Our picturesque location along the Thames River, surrounded by lush green spaces, provides an idyllic setting for academic pursuits.

Located close to downtown London, King’s students enjoy easy access to the city’s vibrant cultural scene, including clubs, restaurants, arts and sports activities.

Approximately 19% of our student body represents over 30 different countries, fostering a diverse and inclusive community.

Additionally, King’s serves as the hub for Western’s Catholic chaplaincy team, offering Catholic mass on campus and facilitating an active Campus Ministry team dedicated to spiritual enrichment and support.

Supporting Documents

Transcripts

After we receive your application, you will receive an acknowledgement email asking for any other documents we need. We must receive supporting documents before we can make an admission decision.

It is your responsibility to ensure that all required documentation is submitted to the Office of Enrolment Services. Submit all documents as soon as they are available and prior to the document deadline.

If you are transferring from an Ontario college or university, transcripts may be electronically submitted through the OUAC. If you are a Group A applicant, your grades will be submitted automatically.

If we find evidence of falsified information and/or omission in the submission of an application for admission, any documentation in support of an application and/or an appeal for admission or re-admission, we reserve the right to deny admission, withdraw an offer of admission, withdraw an offer of scholarship and/or cancel course registration. We may consider previous submission of falsified or fraudulent documentation in future applications.

Language Requirements

If English is not your first language, you will need to submit proof of English-language proficiency. The Admissions Office reserves the right to require any applicant to write a test of English-language proficiency.

As an alternative to completing a language test, you may complete English as a second language (ESL) studies with one of our ESL partners.

Supplemental Documents

Applicants to our Catholic Studies for Teachers program must complete a mandatory supplementary application for admission consideration. We will not consider you for admission to this program unless you submit both the OUAC application and your supplementary application.

We offer additional optional forms on our website for students wishing to self-report grades or be considered under special circumstances.

Offers of Admission

We will extend offers of admission starting in November to high school students who display strong academic results in Grade 11 and the first term of Grade 12. Offers will continue on a rolling basis until programs are full.

If you receive an offer and are currently enrolled in courses, your offer will be conditional. The conditions of your offer will be clearly outlined in your offer of admission letter.

If you are not eligible for the Management and Organizational Studies program, we will consider you for an alternative offer to Social Science.

When you send us your official final documents, we will check that you have met your conditions. If you are successful, we will turn your conditional offer into an unconditional offer, but we will not issue you a new offer letter.
