Great place to go! I recommend it!
Overall 4.1
The people and professors there are really nice, and the programs there are very thorough and enjoyable. Though the Wifi isn't too great and the cafeteria food is very hit or miss, the community is very tight-knight and inviting.
Overall 4.1
This school is a very community based school. Once you enter you feel like you are part of a tight knit community. The class sizes are small and the profs really do care about more then just your grade, they care about you as a person and want to help you strive to your full potential. Tuition is high because of how small the school is.
Overall 4.1
Campus has a warm, small, community feel to it. Easy to meet new people/make friends. Parking is competitive but not overly terrible. Tuition is slightly higher but it is a private institution. You won't get lost inside. Religion is not forced upon non-religious students/students with different religious beliefs. Overall, pretty great place.

Professors here really want you to succeed. They all want to get to know you on a personal level, and small class sizes allow this to happen. As compared to other larger universities, profs at king's are much more flexible when it comes to office hours/meeting with students, and are much more understanding when it comes to mental health struggles.

Love it, my only complaint is that the cafeteria sucks and its not in the prettiest part of Edmonton. As far as profs and community goes it's the best you could get. The profs are personal and take time out to really get to know the students and are easily accessible to help you with your work. The community is INCREDIBLE.

Kings is wonderful, the teachers know your name and actually care about you, the community is fantastic and if you are in the Science program you get to use instruments in your first year that most other university science students don't get to use till 3rd or 4th year!

They just want to take money out of our pockets. Way to expensive.
Overall 1.2
Attending this university was the worst decision of my life, and I have made a few. I want my money back! Funny thing is I was a Christian when I entered and Im leaving an agnostic. The profs are great, it is the school, student life, and the general ideals of the university that are horrible. Do not go here! Please for your own sake stay away

The people here are very nice. That being said the academia is thrown to the wayside in favor of religious beliefs. overall it is a very small school, and as such the facilities are limited and often not well kept up compared to most other universities.
Overall 1.9
The school is extremely expensive and refuses to make changes when problems arise and many issues large or small are shoved under the rug
