Admissions Partnerships

In the continued effort to offer a rigorous education deeply rooted in the Christian Reformed tradition, Trinity Christian College is entering into a series of Guaranteed Admission Partnership (GAP) Agreements with various community colleges. In these partnerships, both Parties are celebrating the unique qualities that a private school education has to offer, with the further assistance of a GAP Scholarship opportunity from Trinity. Moreover, these Partnerships are designed to establish Major-Specific Articulation Agreements to make the transfer process smoother among academic programs.

At Trinity, we’d like to make the “gap” between your community college experience and bachelor’s degree completion much easier to navigate.
