The Associate of King's College is an award qualification by King's College London. AKC is an abbreviation used in post-nominal letters for the recipients of the award. The award is taken alongside a normal academic degree by a student at King's and involves studying Divinity. The AKC was the original qualification that the university awarded to its students.

In order to qualify for AKC, students need to attend a lecture once a week. This is a three-year course (though concessions are made for postgraduate students, and medical students who do not intercalate, to complete in two years). There is also an exam at the end of each year. By the end of the course, students will be eligible to be elected as Associates of King's College and, if elected, will be entitled to put the three letters AKC after their names along with the main qualification.
