Trinity Washington University

Trinity Washington University is a Roman Catholic university located in Washington, D.C. across from The Catholic University of America and the Dominican House of Studies and under the trusteeship of the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur.

Although it has been a university since September 10, 2004, Trinity Washington University's College of Arts & Sciences undergraduate program maintains its original status as a liberal arts women's college. Men are accepted into the School of Education and the School of Professional Studies at both the undergraduate and graduate levels.

As of early 2010, school enrollment was 67 per cent African American, 21 per cent Hispanic, 6 per cent white and 6 per cent international. Men made up 8 per cent of total enrollment in all programs.

Trinity's annual tuition as of 2016 was $22,390, with the average student contributing $1,000 to $2,000 and the remainder coming from federal and local grants.

Playing as the Trinity Tigers, Trinity competes in the NCAA Division III, primarily in the Great South Athletic Conference (GSAC), in basketball, lacrosse, soccer, tennis, and volleyball. Newly added for the spring season of 2012 is softball.

The newest building on the Trinity campus, the Trinity Center for Women and Girls in Sports, was completed in 2003. It features a basketball arena; walking tracks; swimming pool and spa; fitness centre with weight machines, free weights and cardio equipment and dance studio, tennis courts, and an athletic field. Free to Trinity students, the Center offers memberships to local residents.
