Student Housing
Your new home away from home awaits
Students at Trinity love living on campus—and it’s not hard to see why. A few top reasons:
1.
Unlike most colleges, every room has its own bathroom.
2.
The sense of community you’ll get from lounges used for study spaces, floor activities, and bible studies; late-night hangouts; and support from residence life staff.
3.
Proximity to class, the library, campus activities and groups, and faculty and staff.
4.
Ability to take in on-campus sporting and theater events, worship opportunities, or any of the hundreds student activities, all right outside your door without any commute.
5.
The opportunity to live in a diverse community and understand yourself and others better.

You’re going to love campus housing. Forget sharing a bathroom with everyone on your floor. Instead, every room is set up suite-style, including separate bedrooms, walk-in closets, and a bathroom shared with roommates only. It’s sure to feel like home.
