Welcome to Blueprints, Class of 2023!

Trinity Christian College is looking forward to welcoming our incoming freshmen students and their families to Blueprints this weekend, June 21-22. Blueprints is a wonderful opportunity to meet other students, faculty, and staff. Incoming freshmen will experience campus life, sleep overnight in the residence halls, sign up for classes, and begin friendships with other new students that will last a lifetime.

Blueprints gives our students a taste of all aspects of the college experience, and they can spend time arranging class schedules, meeting with faculty advisors, and enjoying the range of planned activities.
