Trinity is a small, private liberal arts college that traces its history to 1823. It currently has about 2,200 undergraduate students and a student-faculty ratio of about 9:1.
Students can choose from about 50 majors, including chemistry, music and political science. About 83% of students graduate within four years — a better than average rate — and two-thirds of first-year students receive scholarships or grants.
Most students live on campus during all four of their undergraduate years, where they can join clubs, fraternities and sororities. Students can compete as Bantam (it’s a proud, feisty little rooster) in one of the school's 30 NCAA Division III teams, or students can participate in club sports like skiing and rock climbing.
Located in the state's capital of Hartford, students have access to a vibrant local bar and restaurant scene, not to mention various historical and art museums. Trinity College also hosts senior week each year, a week of special activities and events like a block party, bar crawls and a formal ball.
