I love the professors here at Trinity! In fact, some of them are my mentors that have encouraged me both academically and professionally. I have been able to plant seeds for life-long relationships with them in which I eagerly look forward to. Each professor is honestly interested in student engagement and success as they both challenge and work with students to achieve goals.

What I like about Trinity Washington University is that everyone is nice, sweet, empathetic, honest, trustfull. Another thing that I like is that all the professors & staff want to see young ladies succeed in their future & have a good life style. They want everyone to graduate with a majo. All the staff & professors persuade all the young ladies to do better for them selves. It's like motivation & that's what made choose TWU!

The curriculum is relevant and immediately applicable to workplace. The campus is beautiful and safe with both historical charm and modern facilities.
