Review of Trinity Western University

from Orange County, CA

Describe your college in three sentences.

TWU offers a variety of programs paired with lots of fun events. It's a school where you meet the kind of friends you'll have for the rest of your life. Langley is a great place to live in because you're close to both the city and the mountains.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Come ready to have fun and meet lots of people, but also come ready to study because the classes are great!!

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

Academic rigor can vary from class-to-class or even program-to-program, but in any class and any program you will find yourself challenged. Professors get to know you personally and so they know what you're capable of! While the classes are challenging, overall they're also fun and engaging.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

Dorm life is amazing. There's always something going on, so if you have to do homework you can know you're not missing out because there will be something else to do tomorrow! Community is a big deal in dorm life (and just everything at TWU), so you build tight relationships that last your whole time here.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

Between the three different places to eat on campus, there's a decent amount of variety! Plus, it's all good quality, they work with allergies, and who doesn't like a great Hot Chocolate?

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

At Trinity, you can go for walks around the pond or in a forested area, you can slackline, you can chase geese... and in the local area there's a local movie theatre, we're not to far from a few different malls, and there are lots of great places to eat!

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

I completely believe that the investment in your education at Trinity is completely worth it!

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

There's something called the Banana Challenge (which is as ridiculous as it sounds) - it's a relay race where you do different things and pass off the banana to the next person.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Trinity has so much to offer in terms of spiritual development and growing in your relationship with God, growing in your field of study, growing in your friendships, growing as a human being... basically Trinity has something for everyone because of the growth it offers combined with the amazing, highly-ranked academic programs it has.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

There's lots of variety - from intramural sports to an outdoor club to swing dancing to outreach ministries and bible studies...

How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?

Campus safety has actually increased during my time here!
