Does Trinity College offer full scholarships to international students?

I'm dreaming of attending Trinity College and heard they might have full scholarships for international students. Does anyone have concrete information on this? I’d love to know about the specifics if they exist!

Yes, Trinity College does offer financial aid to international students, and this can include full scholarships, but it's important to note that it is a highly competitive process. The amount of aid offered to international students varies based on the assessment of each student's financial need. This aid can cover all costs including tuition, room, board, and fees.

The scholarships are need-based rather than merit-based — meaning, they're allocated based on the financial status and need of the student rather than their academic or extracurricular achievements. To apply, you'll need to submit your parents' financial information through the CSS/Financial Aid PROFILE, which will then be used to evaluate your eligibility for financial aid.

So while it's possible to receive a full scholarship as an international student at Trinity College, the specific amount will vary for each student based on their particular financial circumstances. To get a sense of the aid you might receive, consider using the Net Price Calculator available on Trinity College's website, as this can provide an estimate based on your family's financial situation.

Remember, applying for and securing scholarships is a competitive process, so it's important to give yourself the best chance by submitting a strong application overall. All the best with your application!
