Review of Trinity University

from Waco, TX

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

The professors at Trinity University are all very knowledgeable in their fields and outside and are passionate about what they do, which makes the classes interesting and challenging. However, the professors truly care about their students and will try their hardest to help you understand the course material. Also, the structure of Trinity's degree plans allows and encourages students to explore other areas of study outside of their major's.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

Located in downtown San Antonio, Trinity University is surprisingly peaceful and serene, but you can drive three minutes to the Riverwalk or the Alamo. With the small class sizes and numerous organizations, you will quickly get to know, personally, most of your peers and professors. There are several programs each week designed to engage students in ways that classes can't. These events may expose students to new cultures and ways of life in fun, interesting ways but they won't contradict or condemn a student's beliefs.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

With the hundreds of opportunities available to its students, Trinity University will easily be one of the best investments that you make in your life. Besides the cool events on campus, students can choose to participate in intramural, club and/or varsity sports, work closely with a professor on his/her research, and/or express themselves through art. Moreover, because Trinity has so many compassionate, giving alum and because the financial aid office is helpful in making sure that the tuition and other expenses are affordable to prospective and current Trinity students, Trinity University is relatively cheap compared to the big state colleges.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Complete the FAFSA form early! Make sure to get it to your future college/university at least the day of their posted deadline, if not before, because that is when financial aid starts allocating their resources to students and if you are tardy in handing in yours, the money might be already promised to someone else.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Trinity University is the perfect school for intelligent or ambitious students who are seeking an academic challenge, want to learn about and experience other cultures and ways of life, or are interested in exercising their artistic muscles, attending eye-opening lectures, or taking advantage of ample research opportunities.
