College Counseling
The College Counseling Office helps ensure that Trinity Prep graduates continue their education at colleges worldwide. Our primary criterion for guiding students through the maze of postsecondary choices is how well the school “fits” their unique goals. Trinity Prep employs four full-time college counselors and one full-time office coordinator to assist our students and their families.
Upper School Programming Examples:
Student Workshops, Family Nights, Cup of College Chats, the Secrets of Paying for College Presentation, Visual & Performing Arts Night, NCAA Night, practice SAT & ACT opportunities, including regular exposure to fairs and admission representatives from colleges worldwide.
