Admission Requirement / Eligibility Criteria

Consistent with the principles of our founding, the King's College admission process is need-blind and based on a holistic approach to student assessment that considers academic performance, standardized exams (SAT/ACT), and strength of schedule. This approach goes beyond the typical assessment of academic qualifications to include other measures, such as leadership characteristics, personal interviews, and letter(s) of recommendation, all of which play a critical role in allowing the College to find students who will benefit most from a King's education.

We will consider your SAT/ACT scores if you choose to submit them, but they are not required for admission. We strongly suggest students submit SAT/ACT scores if they are applying to the Physician Assistant program. 

A completed application includes:

  • A completed King's College application or Common Application for admission (online applications do not have an application fee)

  • SAT/ACT scores (if you are not submitting scores, you must select "Test Optional" on the application)
