Schools that may match what you desire in a college or University typically align a number of preferences that a student has but also match their academic profile and social interests. Below are some guiding principles to consider when exploring college options.
Every year, Trinity invites college and university reps from around the country to come and discuss topics such as academic programs, campus life, financial aid programs, and admission procedures for their schools. They also come to meet prospective students and answer students’ questions. Even if you're not sold on a college that is visiting, sitting down with reps from various schools is a great opportunity to start to figure out your personal preferences when it comes to colleges. It's also a good way to start practicing for conversations that may occur during college interviews.

They like to share their ideas about their college, and they all appreciate students who have thought about the college and want to know more than is in the course catalog, in the viewbook, or on the website. They like thoughtful questions, and their answers can help you make a good college match.
