King’s College is a Catholic institution of higher education animated and guided by the Congregation of Holy Cross—founder of our sister institution, the University of Notre Dame.
Located on an urban campus in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, the College offers more nearly 60 undergraduate and graduate programs, more than 50 clubs and activities, and 28 NCAA Division III athletic teams, all of which provide ample opportunity for students to deepen their educational experience and develop skills for both a meaningful career and life.
With intentionally small classes and a focus on community engagement and personal connection, students from all backgrounds and faiths find success and support while earning their degrees in business, health sciences, the humanities, social sciences, and science and technology.
In addition to the College’s accreditation by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools, our William G. McGowan School of Business holds the prestigious AACSB International accreditation and many of our programs—including athletic training, chemistry, education, engineering, and physician assistant—are nationally accredited.
King's College is voted the Best College locally and has frequently appeared on national lists favorably ranking insitutions for their quality education, affordable cost, and services provided for more than 20 years!
