Over 35% of Trinity students receive income-based tuition assistance each year in the form of financial aid grants. Trinity welcomes inquiries from families who require financial aid in order to consider Trinity and hopes that no child is denied a Trinity education because of financial reasons.
To be eligible for financial aid you must complete the need-analysis application through the online Clarity™ Application.The application typically takes less than 30 minutes to complete. The Clarity Application is also mobile-friendly so you can complete it from anywhere. You are also able to save your progress and return at any time. At the end of the application, there is a $60 fee to submit, and you can share your application with additional schools that accept the Clarity Application for no additional charge. Simply use the dropdown menu in the application to select those schools.
New students must complete their applications by February 1, 2025 if they want to receive a financial aid determination letter with the acceptance letter. All other financial aid candidates should have their applications completed by April 1, 2025. Any applications submitted after April 1 will only be considered based on the remaining available funds.
Financial aid requests will be reviewed by the Financial Aid Committee, and all information submitted and grants awarded will be held in strict confidence. Admission candidacy is not affected by a financial aid request, and financial aid decisions are made separately from enrollment decisions. The Financial Aid Committee evaluates family need and the needs of other applicants in determining the amount of financial aid to be awarded.
