I'm planning to transfer to Trinity College but I'm not sure how many credits I need to have before applying. Does anyone know the minimum number of college credits required to transfer there?
Hello! Trinity College does have specific criteria when it comes to transfer applicants. According to their admissions website, transfer applicants must have completed at least one full year of college study before they can apply. It's important to note that Trinity College primarily considers applicants who have completed 2 to 4 full semesters of college coursework.
In terms of credits, it usually translates to around 24 to 32 semester hours, or 36 to 48 quarter hours, but it can vary depending on the system your current institution follows. As a transfer applicant, it's also critical to ensure your completed courses align with the distribution requirements at Trinity College.
