Out of an abundance of caution, and following CDC recommendations for vulnerable populations regarding COVID-19, King will suspend the Lifelong Learners program for the fall semester. We will evaluate the spring offering later in the fall semester while closely monitoring the events and effects of COVID-19.
King University offers a select set of collegiate courses for adults aged 60 and over. Adult learners audit non-credit classes at King’s main campus in Bristol, Tennessee, free of charge.
Courses are taught by King professors in the College of Arts and Sciences and the School of Health & Professional Sciences. The courses cover a range of subjects including history, literature, Bible, theatre, photography, intelligence studies, politics, biology, criminal justice, English, fine arts, religion, philosophy, mathematics, and music.
By auditing the selected courses, adult students will be able to attend class without the worry of taking tests, while learning alongside traditional students in the classroom.
Note: Books are not required for classes, but can optionally be purchased at books.king.edu or most online book retailers.
