Overview

Bachelor of Arts in Foundations in The New Liberal Arts

Foundations in The New Liberal Arts is an interdisciplinary approach to first-year studies that lets you explore the traditions of Western Civilization from three perspectives, all at the same time: History, Literature, and Philosophy. 

You'll study the great events that have shaped the world, the great ideas that have changed how we think, and the great books that have defined the human experience. 

You'll learn all those things you always wanted to know, and what you need to know to succeed.

Foundations in The New Liberal Arts at King's University College is for motivated students who want to spend their entry-year reading, writing, thinking, and talking about what it means to be human. Above all, it's for someone like you: 

someone who has high expectations of yourself and of your school, who values small classes where you know everyone's name, and who is looking for an intensive and challenging learning experience. 

It's for those who want to improve not just themselves but the world.
