Trinity offers both need- and merit-based support to a number of its
most highly qualified foreign applicants applying as First Years. When
reviewing international applications, Trinity takes into account whether
or not an applicant has requested financial assistance. Applying for
financial aid places you in an extremely competitive applicant pool.
Trinity therefore advises you to apply for financial aid only if you do
not have the resources to fund your education. Automatic consideration
is given to all foreign applicants for both merit- and need-based aid.
No special application is necessary.
Merit
scholarships are based on the strength of the student’s academic profile
as measured by the following criteria: rigor of and performance in
secondary school coursework, standardized tests, strength of essay,
involvement outside of the classroom, and recommendations from school
officials.
Need-based
financial aid is based on the demonstrated financial support of the
student’s family. Competition for this type of aid is keen.
US Citizens and
Permanent residents applying to Trinity will also be automatically
considered for merit-based awards. Those US Citizens and Permanent
Residents wishing to apply for need-based financial aid should submit
the FAFSA. More information is available on the Financial Aid section
of this website.
International Transfer Applicants
Financial Aid
is not available to foreign transfers, so Trinity does not accept
transfer applications from foreign students who require financial aid.
Additional Information
-The 2005-06
International Student Supplement (Statement of Financial Support) is
required for all foreign applicants and must be submitted with your
application by the appropriate deadline.
-No other forms
are required to be considered for either need- or merit-based financial
aid.
-Financial aid
awards will be given with an offer of admission to Trinity.
