Living at K

Come live at the most beautiful campus in Michigan ! Located near downtown Kalamazoo , the College offers a small school environment within a vibrant urban setting. The student body is close-knit, with 70% of students living on campus and the majority of off-campus students living within four blocks. K’s residential living and dining services offer a variety of sleeping and eating arrangements so that students can comfortably immerse themselves in their education.

Have Fun at K

With over 80 student organizations and weekly campus events , there is always something abuzz! No matter your interests there is something on campus for you: clown around with Cirque du K, embrace your inner thespian in a campus production, get moving and join an athletics team , show off your dance moves at Frelon, or even play blackjack with President Gonzalez at our annual Monte Carlo celebration.

Belong at K

Students come to K from across the world, bringing their own experiences, backgrounds and passions. K strives to empower students with the resources and guidelines they need to explore their identities and enrich their religious and spiritual lives . Working for justice, the College provides opportunities for student activism and community engagement for those who want to embrace their K-Plan and improve the world around them.

Kalamazoo College alumni go on to have extraordinary careers as leaders in their respective fields. This trajectory begins the moment you move in, as there are countless opportunities to work on campus and take on student leadership roles. However, you are not alone in your journey; K staff and fellow students provide academic support and career services every step of the way. You can also tap into the K legacy with mentoring opportunities from our alumni network to help you land that first post-K job.

Be Well at K

In order for our students to grow intellectually, emotionally and professionally, they need a safe learning environment. To create a physically and emotionally healthy campus, K has implemented 24/7 security , affordable healthcare , free counseling , and disability services .
