OK, theres alot of things I can say about this school.  I can sum it up in a few words for you: HIGH SCHOOL, PART 2.  But I'll go a little more in-depth.  First, the campus itself.  It's nice, and the buildings are nice, but the surrounding city isn't that great and can be dangerous at night.  The dorms are clean and well kept.  The apartments on campus are very nice as well, but good luck getting one if you aren't a senior. 

Next, academics.  If you aren't a PA major or a Business major, don't expect a good academic program.  Half of the students here are PA's, and another third are Business.  Anything besides those two gets thrown to the wayside.  Their English program is awful (hence the reason I am transferring). 

Social life at King's is exactly what you'd expect...if you are still in high school.  There are so many cliques in this school it feels like a bad high school TV show.  And don't expect to be popular at all if you don't play a sport.  Athletes are the most popular people (just like high school) and are also arrogant as f**k.  The guy/girl ratio is pretty good, and there are decent looking girls here, but the best girls are either taken or just sleazy.  As for you girls, most guys here are douchebag athletes or bros (Jersey Shore wannabes).

Next, parties.  The parties here are like an overcrowded high school party.  Not enough beer, way too many dudes, not enough girls.  The guy/girl ratio at any given party is seriously like 5:1.  So guys, enjoy alot of competition, and girls, prepare to be bombarded with like 12 guys trying to get with you.  There's only about 5 places to party at at King's: various sports houses, and the Gateway and Flood apartments.  Flood and Gateway occasionally have decent parties, but you can't get in unless you know someone.  So freshies, enjoy the awful sports houses.  There is one “frat”, but it isn't what you think.  It's weird.  Only really strange people party at EKE.

Overall, if you are a PA or Business major looking for a good education and aren't worried about the parties, I recommend this school.  However, if you are ANY other major, or you are looking for a good party school and alot of friends, DON'T come here.  Save yourself the money and trouble.
