Its GREAT
Overall 4.9
This school is amazing for both academics and social life. There are so many things to do both on and off campus. Classes here are great due to their small size and professor availability. I recommend this school to everyone.

Initially had no intention of coming here... It is hard, so if you're looking for a school where you can BS your way through, don't come here. You will learn a lot, you will be able to network with important people in your area of interest. If you're looking for a crazy social life with fraternities/sororities don't come here.

Trinity is a great school. I'm someone who really needs a vibrant social scene to thrive, and I have found that at Trinity, particularly by going Greek. Trinity also shines academically, it's an undergrad experience that will reward you with countless career opportunities. Flawless? No, but definitely an awesome school.
Overall 4.6
I've loved my time at this school. I constantly find myself busy, which I like being. I also have found the workload to be thought provoking and my professors to be very solid. I think the food gets an undeserved bad reputation. There's always good food available. You just need to know where to find it. I've never felt unsafe on campus.

Great career placements and alumni connections.

I wouldn't have made any other decision in retrospect. there are flaws, sure, but the things I've learned and experienced at Trinity are second to none.

Bad reviews
Overall 1.4
There are two types of people here: smart people and rich people. Most of them fall into the second category. Almost all of the people I met here were awful, selfish, despicable people who frankly deserve nothing in life. I genuinely believe I got dumber after graduating from this hellhole. If you do come here, try not to get indoctrinated. Defund!
Overall 1.8
Come here if you want to get a good education. Don't come here if you want to have a good social life. Simple as that. The cliques that are formed week 1 define your entire college experience, so make the most of it while you have the chance.
