Trinity University is a challenging school and most of the people that attend it are intelligent and ambitious. It is in a great city that is full of cultural opportunities. The professors are also very knowledgeable and really enjoy teaching and helping students.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Expect to work hard for your grades. You don't have the luxury of slacking at Trinity.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
The courses, for the most part, are challenging. There is no honors college but the work I do in my classes is oftentimes harder than the work my friends are doing in honors classes at other schools.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
The dorms are AMAZING at Trinity! The rooms are large and well lit. There is tons of storage. Every room at Trinity either has a balcony or opens to an outdoor walkway. Downsides some of the carpet in the older rooms is gross and the walls are very thin, so you can hear everything going on.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
Einstein Brothers and Coates have good food. Mabee has items that are always good, like their mac and cheese, curries, and tacos but overall is not very good.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
The rooms are big enough where it is very easy to host a big group of friends in your room for a movie/game night or just sitting around talking. We sometimes go out to clubs to dance. The theater department puts on a lot of shows throughout the year that are almost always great. But overall, San Antonio is a huge city with tons to do during the weekend.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
A very good school but it is by no means cheap.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
On your birthday your friends will throw you into the fountain. The most unusual tradition we have though is on halloween night guys will streak through campus covered in baby powder. Its called Calvert Ghosts.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Great for smart, hardworking students
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
There are a ton of clubs on Trinity's campus and if you cant find one you like it is easy to create one.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
The greek organizations on campus are fun to be part of and all, but one fraternity, are local organizations. There are no greek houses so if you are looking for the movie version of greek life, Trinity isn't the place.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
Campus is well lite and safe. I often walk back to my dorm from the library late at night and I have never felt unsafe.
