Students Say
Located in San Antonio, Trinity University is a small liberal arts college that offers substantial financial aid and encourages the exploration of academic interests and personal goals. Strong science programs and research opportunities abound, and students are interested in many different branches of academia and extracurricular life: “It’s rare to find a student with one major and no minor.” The Dean and President “have steady communication with the student body,” and “they’re open to criticism and willing to change the school’s policy in order to advocate for the students’ needs.” The “highly intelligent” faculty “know their stuff and love what they do”; they are “very self-aware and are constantly trying to improve themselves and their students.” The most distinguishable trait about Trinity professors is “the deeply-ingrained willingness to connect with and help their students,” which is possible due to Trinity’s small class sizes. Academics here are rigorous, and professors “expect their students to treat the class ... as if it was the only class students have.” Luckily, they will “bend over backwards to help you understand and complete material,” and some professors even hold extra study sessions on Sundays (one-on-one attention from professors is common, as the university does not have TAs).
Above all else, Trinity University encourages students to take a wide range of classes and pursue a wide variety of interests, and a fair number of students choose to study abroad their junior year. The school “focuses on building a community based on the individual” and “fosters a space for the easy transfer of knowledge between faculty and students as well as the creation of new knowledge in research.”

Popular majors at Trinity include Communication, Business Administration, and Engineering Science. One Communication major singled out a grant the school received from AT&T that allowed Trinity to “renovate the...communications lab [so] that is has [state-of-the-art] equipment,” which helps to “further [the] interests and careers of students going into a media field.” According to the school’s website, Career Services “fosters career advancement and contributes to the growth and success of Trinity graduates.” The office’s website offers students access to Hire a Tiger, the school’s online recruitment system. The school’s website emphasizes that “Career Services at Trinity is a comprehensive and centralized service that works with both students (from first-years to seniors) and alumni.” Trinity’s small size makes it so “everyone really knows everyone, even alumni, which is really great because it makes networking so much easier.”
Excerpt from Colleges That Create Futures
Trinity takes research seriously, spending nearly a million dollars a year on student research, and ensures that as many students as possible, from every discipline and department, are able to participate. "We have an undergraduate research program during the summer," Professor Jacob Tingle, who co-directs Trinity's Center for Experiential Learning and Career Success, tells us. "The last three summers more than 150 students have lived on campus, received significant stipends, and completed research with faculty. Students work for ten weeks on a research project and present at a symposium. Many of those papers end up being delivered at regional or national conferences as well." And the research doesn't end with STEM majors. "I'm proud of our emphasis on humanities and social science research during the summer as well," Professor Tingle states. For Paige Roth, a 2015 biology and English double major, the opportunity to conduct substantive research changed the course of her life. Initially doubtful of her abilities in science, Paige had a deep passion to become a veterinarian. "I conducted plant biology research for three years with Dr. Shinkle. While for some, studying plants may sound like the most boring job in the world, I developed a fantastic relationship with my research advisor and gained so much confidence in my scientific abilities, which made it the best gig I could have picked. I even presented my research at an international research conference." Paige has since gone on to graduate study at Rice University in bioscience and health policy, and plans to apply to veterinary school. She says that the combination of her degree and research experience makes it possible for her "to communicate cool scientific concepts in interesting and digestible terms."
Tuition & Aid
Tuition & Aid
Overview
From The School
Tuition, Room, Board and Fees
A Trinity University degree can be one of your best investments. For educational value, Trinity has placed consistently among the top universities in the nation. The University is a privately supported institution. The educational and operating expenses are provided by payments from students; income from endowment funds; appropriations and gifts from trustees, alumni, foundations, businesses, industries, churches, and generous-spirited individuals. Tuition and fees cover less than half the actual cost per student. The difference is paid from the sources indicated above. Thus, each full-time student attending Trinity receives, in effect, an annual subsidy in addition to any other scholarship or student aid granted to individual students.
For the 2019-2020 school year, tuition is $44,680, room and board is $13,584 and technology and activity fees are $616.
Financial Aid
A top-quality Trinity education is an invaluable investment with benefits that last a lifetime. An investment of this magnitude is not without cost, and we understand that students and their families may need assistance to address these expenses. Toward that end, Trinity offers a comprehensive financial aid program of scholarships, grants, loans, and campus employment opportunities. The average financial aid package for undergraduates with need is $34,809, and 56% of students graduate with no debt.

Respect. Engagement. Equity. Inclusion. Understanding. At Trinity University, we use these five words not only to define diversity, but also community. We believe that community cannot exist without diversity and that diversity cannot be fruitful without a vibrant community. Trinity students are bold, smart, clever, and creative, and have a passion for making a positive impact on the world around them. They come to Trinity from all over the state, nation, and world to study, research, learn, discover, and grow.
From the moment you first step foot onto campus, you will be introduced to the endless ways to step outside the classroom and your comfort zone. From making new friends in the first year residence halls, to attending different classes to discover your passions, to learning about Greek life, student organizations, and service opportunities--your first year at Trinity is a truly memorable experience.
Campus life at Trinity is vibrant, active, friendly, and connected. Trinity offers students countless outlets to make friends, exercise talents, and serve others. It is the norm here to be engaged in activities outside the classroom, to take on leadership roles, and to try out new pursuits. Trinity is a place where ideas, passions, and questions can be fully explored. With over 100 campus clubs and student organizations, you'll find something for every interest.
Whether you're looking to join a stellar intercollegiate team, play club or intramural sports, or exercise in state-of-the-art athletic and fitness facilities, Trinity's athletics and fitness programs have something for you. Trinity's model intercollegiate athletics program has been cited for its perfect balance of academics and athletics. Our student-athletes regularly earn Academic All-America Honors and NCAA postgraduate scholarships. And in recent years we've won four NCAA team championships as well as four individual track and field national titles. Trinity's Club Sports program also offers students opportunities for national competition and leadership in seven sports. Have more enthusiasm than skill? Try our popular Intramurals program!
Fraternity & Sorority Life at Trinity serves as a home-away-from-home for about a quarter of the undergraduate student population. Being in a fraternity or sorority at Trinity provides opportunities for leadership development, alumni networking, service to the Trinity and San Antonio communities, and creating lifelong friendships.

There is an “open-minded open-to-all mindset” that is readily seen on campus: “At Trinity, you’re cool if you competitively roller skate, are an amateur baker, play a competitive sport, are freaky good at laser tag (ninja status), or anything else you can do well and makes you happy,” says a student. Though most are “pretty middleto upper middle-class,” the school “encourages interactions with others from all walks of life.” For the most part, everyone is “smart, committed, and involved,” and an “overarching friendliness” pervades the entire student population.

Overview
From The School
Location
Noted for red brick buildings, native live oaks, beautiful grounds, and sparkling fountains, Trinity University encompasses 125 acres situated on a hilltop overlooking downtown San Antonio. Trinity is known for its stimulating, resourceful, and collaborative environment in the classroom, on campus, and around the world. Our campus setting is the perfect place to learn and grow.
Campus Facilities & Equipment
Trinity University values its academic resources, among them its state-of-the-art teaching, researching, and learning facilities. Lecture halls, laboratories, offices, libraries, and study spaces strengthen collaborative teaching and learning--they are an investment in our future. From science and engineering laboratories to an extensive library collection to theaters, halls, and galleries: students and faculty at Trinity are encouraged to utilize the full range of academic resources and facilities to support their research and studies.
In the Center for the Sciences & Innovation (CSI), Trinity's science and engineering programs offer students cutting-edge instrumentation usually found only at the graduate level. Trinity's science labs are consistently ranked among the best in the nation. Students utilize shared instrumentation along with controlled environmental chambers, two high-field nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometers, genetic sequence analyzer, fiber optics/photonics laboratory, an observatory with eight computer-guided telescopes, a laser and soft-matter dynamics laboratory, high-pressure liquid and capillary gas chromatographs and capillary electrophoresis. The CSI also houses the Marrs McLean Science Center and the Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship.
Recently renovated, the Ruth Taylor Fine Arts Center is composed of three buildings: the Smith music building, which houses classrooms, practice studios, and the Ruth Taylor Recital Hall; the Dicke art building, which features spacious art studios flooded with natural light, digital photo labs, and an art gallery; and the Ruth Taylor Theater building, which features the 500-seat Stieren Theater, one of the most advanced theatrical facilities at an undergraduate college. Trinity is part of an elite network of schools that are All-Steinway campuses.
At the Richardson Communication Center, students have access to an interactive multimedia lab, two television stations with control rooms, and the students for KRTU-FM--which is not only the campus radio station, but also San Antonio's largest outlet for jazz music.
Off-Campus Opportunities
San Antonio is often referred to as having a small-town feel, even though it is the seventh-largest city in America. Trinity's campus is only 3 miles from the heart of downtown, which allows the Trinity community to experience everything from music shows on the St. Mary's Strip to art events like First Friday to farmer's markets at the Pearl. Professional sports teams such as the five-time NBA champion San Antonio Spurs, the Missions (a Double-A affiliate of the San Diego Padres), the NASL Scorpions, and events like the San Antonio Stock Show & Rodeo and Fiesta bring millions of people to San Antonio each year to celebrate its unique local culture.
Do you love being outdoors? With more than 300 days of sunshine per year, there are countless opportunities to take advantage of South Texas' great weather. For more than 25 years, Outdoor Recreation (O-Rec) has led groups of Trinity students on adventures across the country. They crawl among cacti, paddle scenic rivers, and climb high mountains. Whether you are an expert mountaineer or you have never been inside a tent, they have trips for you! Do you want to see the world? Trinity's Study Abroad Program is dedicated to helping students develop their understanding of international issues in a complex world through study options that promote intercultural learning as an integral part of a student's Trinity undergraduate degree. Study Abroad is not about travel. It's really about encountering the world, and even more about discovering the country and yourself.

Students Say
Most students at Trinity live on campus (and it’s “hard to get off campus and do things if you don’t have a car”), so there are always campus-wide events happening. Most people here are “happily overcommitted” and the “lovely campus” is big enough for all sorts of people to find their niche, but small enough “that you can connect with others who share similar interests as you within and without your major.” Intramural sports and Greek life are popular, and “there’s no tension between Greeks and non-Greeks.” A healthy mix of activities complements the healthy mix of academic areas, and some people go out to parties on weekends, other people get ahead on studies, other people sleep.” For those looking for some city culture, downtown San Antonio is ten minutes away, Austin is just a 90-minute drive, and “there are tons of restaurants and historical monuments and museums” nearby. Cowboys, the local country dance club (“only in Texas”) gets a lot of Trinity students visiting on weekends, and many people here “enjoy outdoor pursuits.” Laid back, casual fun is the name of the game at Trinity, and students are perfectly happy to “catch a movie at the nearby theater, go to the local farmers’ market, go to Spurs’ games ... or just hang out on campus.”
