King's Support Services
Academic Counseling
The Academic Dean’s Office is responsible for assisting our students with academically-related issues, and providing information that cannot be found in the University Calendar. For specific program issues, or for information about graduate or professional programs, they are happy to provide preliminary assistance, but will routinely refer such enquiries to the appropriate contact person for that program. Academic Counselling is available on a drop-in basis, and students currently attending courses are encouraged to see the Counsellors during posted drop-in hours.
