About King's College, Aberdeen

According to Wikipedia, King's College in Old Aberdeen, Scotland, the full title of which is The University and King's College of Aberdeen , is a formerly independent university founded in 1495 and now an integral part of the University of Aberdeen. Its historic buildings are the centrepiece of the University of Aberdeen's Old Aberdeen campus, often known as the King's or King's College campus. The focal point of the college, as well as its oldest building, is the late 15th century King's College Chapel.
