Series consists of the Matriculas (1803-1906, 1981-1995, 1996-2004, and 2005-present) and other bound volumes in which were recorded students' names, the dates they attended King's, their courses and grades, awards and degrees.

There was no matricula before the charter in 1802, and no precise record of the names of student who entered during the first twelve years of the life of the College has been preserved. Rev. John Inglis, who was the first to enter the Academy in 1788, wrote, "It is believed that more than Two Hundred persons entered the Institution before the Charter was obtained. NO MATRICULA was kept; but more than a hundred of these persons desired to pursue a Collegiate course.

In recent years, signing the Matricula has been considered the final step in registering at King's.

Series consists of documents published under the auspices of the Registrar's Office. Most of the records are promotional brochures and booklets used to recruit high school students and retain King's students after Foundation Year. Some of the brochures are simple single-colour tri-folded letter-size pages, while others are full-colour professionally produced publications. The Registrar's Office sends promotional materials to prospective students and high school counselors, distributes them to high school students who visit the campus or attend information sessions at their high schools, and hands them out at college recruiting fairs.

The Registrar publishes the University Calendar (1855 through 2010-2011), which has been catalogued at LE 3 K6 and is shelved in Special Collections; The Calendar was published in hard copy from 1855 through 2008-2009; since then, it has been published digitally in portable document format (PDF) and posted on the University's website.
