Church Grants<br />
Grants are provided to students if they or their parents are members of a supporting church.<br />
Contact the financial aid office for more information.<br />
<strong>Trinity</strong> Grants<br />
The <strong>Trinity</strong> Grant is available to students who demonstrate financial need. To be considered<br />
for a <strong>Trinity</strong> Grant, a student must demonstrate financial need by means of the FAFSA. The<br />
financial aid office calculates the <strong>Trinity</strong> Grant after all other scholarships and government<br />
financial aid have been included in the need analysis process. Amounts range from $500 to $6,000.<br />
It is recommended that new students complete the FAFSA by February 15 to receive priority<br />
consideration for need-based aid; returning students by March 1.<br />
High School Waiver Policy<br />
A high school waiver is available for a senior student to attend <strong>Trinity</strong> <strong>Christian</strong> <strong>College</strong> equal to<br />
one-half of the cost for one class only. Please contact the financial aid office for details. In the case<br />
of a student eligible for both a dependent waiver and a high school waiver, the limit is one-half.<br />
Visitors<br />
Members of the community who are not enrolled as students in any college are invited to register<br />
as visitors in most lecture classes. Formal admission to <strong>Trinity</strong> is not required, but completing a<br />
visitor’s application, required annually, with the President’s Office is required; a $10.00 processing<br />
fee must accompany the application. Once approved, visitors may register, with instructor<br />
consent, for no more than one course a semester through the SALT program office. Like auditing<br />
a course, a visitor attends class sessions, but does not fulfill requirements of the course (e.g.,<br />
papers, quizzes, exams, etc.). While those who audit a course receive an appropriate indication on<br />
their transcript, no indication is given for visiting status. Members of the community who wish to<br />
audit a course should consult procedures for auditing.<br />
Financial aid for off-campus Programs<br />
<strong>Trinity</strong>-Sponsored Programs<br />
Students enrolling in <strong>Trinity</strong>-Sponsored Off-Campus Programs (Chicago Semester, Semester in<br />
Ecuador, Semester in Nicaragua, and Semester in Spain) will be charged the full <strong>Trinity</strong> semester<br />
tuition, and 100 percent of <strong>Trinity</strong> institutional financial aid will be applied.<br />
<strong>Trinity</strong> Endorsed Off Campus Programs (p. 184)<br />
Endorsed Off-Campus Semester Programs include CCCU BestSemester programs as well as<br />
others; for a complete list see the Director of Off-Campus Programs (Groot 160). Students<br />
attending endorsed programs must, at the time of application to the program, make specific<br />
application to receive 50 percent of <strong>Trinity</strong> institutional financial aid. If approved, 50 percent<br />
of financial aid awarded by <strong>Trinity</strong> for that given semester may be applied to the off-campus<br />
program. If, however, participation in an endorsed program is a requirement for a <strong>Trinity</strong><br />
major, minor, or concentration, then 100 percent of <strong>Trinity</strong> institutional financial aid may apply<br />
(assuming approval of the special financial aid application).<br />
