The King’s Student Life includes experiences both in and out of the classroom!

We’re here to support our students during and beyond their time at King’s. This pillar has been designed to get you ready for life after King’s. Here, you will find programming to help you understand more about potential career or further education pathways, identify important career elements, and use strategies to transition into the next chapter. Under this pillar, you will learn how to:

  • Recognize post-grad career and schooling opportunities
  • Navigate career paths while building experience and resiliency
  • Hone professional skills to succeed in the workplace

Programs and Services:

King's Promise

Learn more about King’s Promise

The King’s Promise Program is a 4-year co-curricular program which guarantees students a meaningful job within 6 months of graduation. If this is not achieved, the student can return to King’s for one additional year of courses and campus-based support, tuition-free. Throughout their 4 years of undergraduate study, students complete 15 co-curricular activities to support their career development, enhance pre-employment skills, engage in experiential learning opportunities, gain tangible workplace experience, and develop the language necessary to identify and articulate the value of transferrable skills and holistic competencies.
