Tuesday Tour Day — Trinity Washington University

Trinity Washington University is located in the nation’s capital, just minutes from the U.S. Capitol and downtown Washington, DC. Founded in 1897, it is one of the first Catholic colleges for women in the US. Since then, Trinity has remained faithful to its primary vision with a mission to ensure access to a high quality education for women who might otherwise be excluded. The majority of students enrolled are women, but there are men attending Trinity.

Academics
At Trinity, there are 20 baccalaureate majors including business administration, registered nursing and education. Since Trinity focuses on women, men are only able to attend the university in programs in the School of Professional Services and at the graduate level. All classes are taught by faculty and every tenured faculty member has the highest degree possible in their field. The average class size at Trinity is 15.

Campus Life
There are on-campus activities that take place every day, involving all members of the school, including athletic events, public lectures, clubs and organization and Trinity Traditions. Trinity urges its students to have an active life outside of the classroom. Most students explore the cultural, historical and community events that the DC-area offers. Since health and fitness are important parts of an education, Trinity is a member of Division III athletics. There are varsity level sports as well as intramurals.

Financial Aid
Over $1 million in aid is awarded by Trinity each year in addition to state and federal funding. The school offers need-based and merit-based aid in amounts ranging from $1,000 to $12,000. Tuition is $20,150 and room and board is $9,210.
