Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Prospective students, make sure you get your FASFA done as soon as you can so that you get the maximum amount of financial aid. You will also have to apply for outside scholarships to cut down the cost of tuition (Trinity is a private college and does not offer as many scholarships as public universities). Trinity offers many tours in particular a tour called Destination Trinity, where you are able to get a taste of the college life. They let you stay with students in the dorm halls, eat at the dining hall, and visit professors in your major. Don't be afraid to talk to your professors they actually like to hear from their students.
