“Trinity Changed My Life”

Trinity’s Class of 2020 graduates value their Trinity experience. Here’s what they shared about choosing – and graduating from – Trinity!

  • “Trinity has shaped and molded me into the woman I am today.”
  • “Trinity changed my life. I was exposed to experiences that I can carry with my forever. Trinity brought me out of my shell and I have many to thank for that: The athletic department and head coach, you all believed in me and that allowed me to believe in myself. My professors who challenged me knowing I would be able to complete the work.”
  • “I came to Trinity because I was given a huge opportunity to continue my education. I knew this was my once in a lifetime opportunity to excel and conquer not only for myself, but also for my family.”
  • “I’m a human relations major with a counseling cluster with a minor in education and sociology. I transferred to Trinity in 2017 after taking two years off from school and becoming a mom. I chose the right school to come back to – I’ve been pushed to the best version of myself….Attending Trinity has shaped me and matured me in more ways than I can imagine. I can confidently say I’m ready for the next chapter and I know I’ll forever have Trinity behind me. With my major in Humans relations with a counseling cluster I have the right educational background to succeed in all I want to do. I plan on being a certified peer specialist in the DMV area and being a resource to the place I came from. Trinity Washington University has given me the tools.”
  • “I didn’t start my college journey at Trinity but I am happy I made the decision to transfer. After my senior year of high school, I was set on going to a small school in North Carolina to study health sciences. I went for about a semester in a half but made the challenging decision to leave, come back home to D.C, and take some time off. During this time, I decided I wanted to pursue a nursing major to become a midwife. I began this pursuit by becoming a part-time student at a DC university while I continued to look for schools in the area to attend full-time. This is when I found Trinity and, in the Spring of 2017, I became a member of the Trinity community. I loved the classes I was taking, the professors I had, and the energy of the school. I realized that Trinity was a better fit for me than my original first choice.”
