Actually the Knowledge college has spells that per the spell chart do
not require magery. Of the Seek (whatever) only Seek Plastic requires magic. There are a handful of other spells with Test Load and Tell Position being the most useful to the Vikings.
Looking at the chart Enchantment and Meta are the only collages that require Magery 1+ throughout though some colleges are near useless at Magery 0.

By the way, I'm looking at a realistic (as opposed to cinematic) and fantastic (as opposed to historical or mythic) game.

Effectively leaning toward High Magic + Rare Magic.

Actually the Necromantic college doesn't require Magery 1: Steal Energy, Steal Vitality, Steal Dexterity, and Steal Might are all learnable by Magery 0 wizards per the chart. There are a handful of other M0 spells but those are the ones that really stand out.
Yes, M0 majorly limits some colleges (a few to the point they are effectively gutted) but only two really require M1 or higher: Enchantment and Meta.
