Welcome to Trinity College Class of 2029!
We are excited to welcome you to campus and the Trinity Community. Students also have an opportunity to participate in a Pre-Orientation program prior to NSO.
The Pre-Orientation Programs will create space for students to explore and connect. Through collaborative partnerships across campus, the Pre-Orientation Programs are rooted in efforts to foster awareness, care, connection, conversations, and experiences as a community.
The P.R.I.D.E. Welcome Weekend is a three-day program designed to support incoming first-year students from all backgrounds and identities in making a successful transition to Trinity’s academic and social environment. Students will meet with faculty, administrators, and peer leaders and engage in discussions and fun activities, including a walking tour to familiarize them with the city of Hartford.
Students who join the Summit-to-Success (S2S) Scholars program will get a jump-start on how the most successful students navigate college, including practicing life design and creative problem-solving skills, developing an individualized success plan, and engaging in weekly 1×1 life design coaching with a member of our professional coaching team. Together, we’ll help you see how your present self can become your future self, connect the dots, and develop a plan to get there!

The deadline to sign up is August 15!
