Life on Campus Trinity’s beautiful campus is in a quiet residential neighborhood, just a few miles from vibrant downtown San Antonio. Our residence halls have suite-style rooms with semi-private bathrooms, outdoor space, large closets, and housekeeping service. City Vista, the University’s apartment complex, features 1-, 2-, and 3-bedroom apartments. Students are guaranteed university housing for all four years, so you’ll enjoy a comfortable, modern, roomy place to study, sleep, relax, and hang out with friends for your entire Trinity career.

Life in San Antonio There is always plenty to see and do in America’s seventh largest city. San Antonio is laid-back and warm (in both climate and attitude) making it a pleasure to explore. Trinity’s location is ideal for taking advantage of the city’s many options for fun, relaxation, internships, and jobs. Within an hour or two drive there are even more great places to discover in the Texas Hill Country, Austin, and on the Gulf Coast.

Trinity offered more than 3.75 million USD in financial assistance to international students admitted to the Class of 2023. Candidates who qualify for merit-based scholarships or need-based aid will receive notification with their offer of admission. MERIT SCHOLARSHIPS
NEED-BASED FINANCIAL AID
Merit scholarships are awarded to students who have demonstrated exceptional academic achievement. This is measured by secondary school grades, course rigor, standardized test scores, strength of essay, extracurricular involvement, and recommendations from school officials. Your application for admission is also your application for merit scholarships, so no additional forms are required.
Limited need-based funding is available for international students, and applications are highly competitive. Trinity takes into account an applicant’s request for financial assistance when reviewing admissions applications. Need-based awards are based on the demonstrated financial support as established by the International Student Financial Aid Application (ISFAA) or the CSS Profile for International Students. Students who intend to apply for needbased aid must submit one of these forms for their application to be considered complete.
IF YOU PLAN TO APPLY FOR NEED-BASED FINANCIAL AID:
