Trinity University

Why Trinity: 

• "To be honest I hadn’t really heard of Trinity until I started my college search but it checked a lot of boxes when I started investigating. Coach McGinlay saw me at the soccer game and asked me to come and visit in October. Even the person that checked us in for the tour was super friendly and though it was quiet it had a great community feel, the person that took us around was a swimmer so she had great insight about sports and academics at Trinity. Plus she spoke a lot to the flexibility at Trinity and encouragement to try new things. I was super impressed with the new technology building even though we could not get in - loved all the windows and design. I also liked the idea of the Study Abroad options. I spent quite a few hours with Coach McGinlay - toured the awesome athletic facility, and saw the athletes train - overall I was very impressed and REALLY liked the coach. I thought we had a great rapport - I could see myself on his team and at Trinity."
