<p>Amicuscuriae4: My son turned down January and asked a couple of questions in his email. However, he never received a response. Additionally, no word since the email some weeks ago.</p>
<p>Trinity’s cool like that! lol.</p>
<p>Hi!
I was placed on the wait list for Trinity Class of 2017 too, but I GOT IN 
You should definitely wait and see if they accept you or not because the campus is great and it has a reputable name.</p>
<p>Good Luck!</p>

<p>Did you get 100% FA? And when did you hear the news?</p>
<p>Yes I was accepted with full admission (if that is what FA stands for) and I found out about a week ago. They called me and said I was off the wait list and that official acceptance will come in the mail. And it came :D</p>
<p>@Degoryglory - Congratulations!! What are your grades, scores, extracurricular activities, and financial need? And what did you do/send in your attempt to get off the waiting list?? Thanks!</p>
<p>lol, FA = financial aid. I don’t think he had applied for that. :P</p>
<p>My grades were not the best, a 2.8 gpa. However, I was really active in my community and I won a lot of scholarships. I played soccer for four years (varsity), my SATs were a 1620 super score, and no, I was not qualified for financial aid. When I got of the waitlist, I continued to show my interest in my top choice by writing to the college through letters, not e-mail (I’m not going to say what I wrote, you will have to figure that out yourself!) </p>
<p>Other info- I’m Chinese, upper-middle class, and live in jersey. I did not do an interview.</p>
<p>I was surprised I got off the waitlist and thank God for everything, but I kept trying and that’s probably how I got in 
But hey, ya never know! Good Luck!</p>
<p>@Degoryglory - Oh no, I had a feeling they were going to comb for upper-middle class students. 
It seems like all colleges are doing this with their waiting lists!</p>
<p>But congrats again, and thanks for the well-wishing! I’ve been writing them, too, but my financial situation requires a lot of FA. I think that may have been why they waitlisted me in the first place; I’m definitely academically qualified and have a couple of hooks (and showed mucho passion for Trinity), but they probably didn’t want to spend such a huge, lump sum on just one student. <em>sigh</em></p>
<p>Little note: I love that you play soccer! It’s a terribly under-appreciated sport in America!</p>
<p>Hey, guys! Has anyone heard from Trinity yet??</p>
<p>no word here</p>
<p>What about now?</p>
<p>Both my nephew and my niece were waitlisted and both got in, not saying everyone gets in but it was their impression that they stood a good chance, if its your top pick you should hang tight. Good luck!</p>
<p>Hey guys… I did just very little research !!! and since I found this forum I thought it would be good to ask some questions. I saw that the university is really small…does it have good facilities (e.g. football field, volleyball…etc.) and what about the dorms ??</p>
<p>Thanks !! :)</p>
<p>I just received admission off of the waitlist 3 days ago and was a given a full financial package that was actually better than the LAC that I was already enrolled in, so they are definitely still looking at the list. 3.5 gpa, 2080 SAT, Eagle Scout, continued to show interest…</p>
