What are my chances to get into Trinity College?

I’m a B+ student with an 87-88% gpa. I have strong extracurriculars, a part-time job teaching computer science, I have taken 4 AP classes, and a few honors. my GPA is low for Trinity and I’m also applying test optional. Trinity is my top school I know most of their applicants have 1200 sat’s and up. I’m not heop eligible which sucks because it could have boosted my chances by a lot.

Did you apply ED? That would increase your chances of acceptance but it depends on your FA needs.

I will tell you that one key thing will be your Essay and your writing supplement. Focus on making those stellar and you increase your odds.

What is your major interest? Where are you from and what other ECs do you have? Are you URM because you mentioned HEOP?

I didn’t apply ED because of the financial aspect. It’s my top school but if I have to pay that 70k tuition or even 20-40k per year I simply can’t afford it. They have 100% financial need and I know they would pick up some of the costs and would be willing to take out a loan for 10-20k for the first year but its all so stressful.

I am black so hopefully, that helps. I think that’s what URM stands for right?

Yes, URM is under represented minority. Best of luck as it sounds like you would be a great student for Trinity.
