WELCOME TO FINANCIAL AID

A private college education of Trinity’s quality is an invaluable, yet significant investment, and we understand that many families are apprehensive about their ability to cover these costs. Trinity is committed to assisting our students and their families navigate the financial aid process. Our comprehensive program is designed to address the concerns of families at all income levels.

Trinity has been rated one of the nation’s best buys in higher education by publications including the Fiske Guide to Colleges, U.S. News and World Report, and Kiplinger’s Personal Finance.

86% of Trinity’s students receive financial aid.

The University distributes over $37 million in financial aid annually.

Financial aid at Trinity comes in various forms:
- Merit scholarships which are offered to students who have demonstrated academic achievement or talent in art, music, theatre or debate
- Need-based aid in the form of grants, loans, and campus employment
You may be awarded one type, no aid, or a combination of options, depending on a variety of circumstances.
