If I could give zero stars I would . Not enough parking, mentors are not communicative, you have to call or email them like 3 times for them to actually answer. They treat you with much attention when applying but once you start attending they do not care about you anymore. Thank God I comminuted because I cannot imagine leaving here, but I keep running into problems anyways because there is only 3 small parking lots in this place and if you are trying to make it to class on time forget about it because the parking lot right next to the buildings is always packed free 9:30. Then you have to park all the way in the back which sometimes fills up as well! Then you have to park at the furthest ONE which also fills up as well so where tf am I supposed to park? Yet they got like 4 tennis courts that can easily become more parking or just make a garage like hello?! I also heard someone in the dorms had their TV AND CLOTHES STOLEN while they were out of town because the locks on the dorm doors can literally be opened with a credit card. So what I have heard when students tell me they get locked out. Some but not all professors are not professional don't go to this school they curse and say the f word all the time. Security don't even pay attention who walks in and out this building fr, the school also look nice on the outside but the main hall is needs to be renevated period . I really don't care if you are trying to keep up with the 1900's look the floors are creaking, it's hot asf in there. Please don't come to its school the only parks is that they give you a lot of FA so if you can make a sacrifice to for that then be my guest. read more

Trinity Washington University - Full parking lot everyday people end up parking on the grass - Colleges & Universities Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

The dorms for the sophomores is unbelievable. They needs to be remodele. The air and heat vents has a lot of black dust and old rust. The dressers is scratched up real bad.The closet door nearly opens. It just looks a mess!!!! It looks like a jail cell. The auditors need to come and inspect that place because the are charging way too much money to live on campus and those rooms are not up to date. Same ole stuff from when that university was built in 1929. It looks rediculous.I would not recommend to nobody. Rooms are horrible!!!! Even the meals are nasty! read more

See all

Beware of the public health director, Dr Betschman, in my opinion unprofessional and limited in her abilities. Trinity allowing her to develop curriculum is insane and she recruits the bottom of the barrel professors-( in my opinion) gh... and unprofessional, intellectually limited. read more

Just WOW! I can't believe the treatment I just received. What a difference than when you go in person to have a tour. I called just to ask a simple question about the program of public heath. My daughter was considering apply to it but wanted to know what concentrations were available. Someone from admissions answered the phone and didn't even say good afternoon. I was not done talking when she rudely transferred me to enrollment. Then, when I asked the enrollment person the same question about the public health program, she told me there is not a public health program. I asked how was that possible if my daughter was accepted under that major. Then I asked if I could please talk to Dr. Nicole Betchman since she is the director of that department, but the woman hung up on me. I just can't believe how bad I was treated not from one person but 2. Two people that I know my daughter will have to interact with if she attends Trinity. No thanks! We will look another option for her. The very few thousand that we were going to save attending Trinity are not worth dealing with people like that. read more

I got accused of entering the main hall at 3:30 AM. But I was there from 7 pm...I stepped out at 3 AM to attempt to make a purchase. I was falsely accused of walking around naked. Then I was banned for trespassing. Let another alumni be on campus it's peaches and cream. I never wanted to be an alumni of Trinity and the fact that I am one is a curse. I'm gonna make certain they refund my mom for the 6k she paid out of pocket for my tuition. Because this behavior right here isn't why she sent me to trinity that's for sure!!! read more

I've been taken classes here since the spring. I enjoy the classes and the interaction with fellow students. Most of my instructors have been really great; I had one that liked to do all the talking and barely let the students answer questions. It's super easy to get to from Maryland using North Capital street. It's a breeze on Saturdays and not too much traffic on the weekdays when I head down around 8:30 a.m. Parking is free on campus, but sometimes you need to park along the side of the street. You can park on Michigan Ave on Saturday mornings, but not on the weekdays until after 9:30 a.m. Their continuing education classes are popular with teachers that need recertification courses. I only wish my school district had the money to always reimburse me for my education expenses read more

Do not waste your time or money on any healthcare graduate program here. They will bully you out the program if they don't like you . Wasted time and money trying to pursue a masters degree here and the directors of the program are unprofessional and out of line. The campus itself is ancient and has no dining options, or student resources. Really look into public schools or community colleges before wasting your time. read more

I'm a mentor to a rising high school junior who expressed great interest in the nursing program at TWU. I scheduled a 12 o'clock tour and we were greeted in the admissions area. The tour was great, she answered our questions and kept us engaged. The admissions counselor gave us important info for the application process and was friendly. The buildings are very old and definitely need some renovation. The door rooms have the beds directly next to one another which I found odd and uncomfortable. Because the desk are fixed to the walls, there isn't any room for moving furniture around. The dining hall appeared to be from the early 1900's, from the tables to the light fixtures. I understand it's an older school, but most universities are old. If they are going go take money, some of it needs to be reallocated to fixing the school. The lobby of the dorm was like something out of a horror film. The only weird thing here was the security officer... when we walked in, I told him I and my two mentees were there for a tour. He stared at us and said " do you know where to go," I told him no and asked if he could point us to the admissions office, which he did. As we were walking away he asked "all yall here for a tour?" and I said "yes"... he continued to stare.. didn't say anything else and just looked away. It seemed like he had some sort of delayed reaction. As we left the tour, he looked at us and asked "are yall done with the tour".. we confirmed and he just continued to stare at us oddly. It was almost like he had never heard of a tour before. Our guide was great, but I didn't get an awesome first impression, but I want to leave the choice to my mentee with the time comes. read more

***This is a review for the Trinity Science Building only*** Being a student, and huge fan, of Trinity College in DC, I really hesitate to shed too much light on the science building. I LOVE Trinity and I think the benefits of attending are amazing, however, having a class in the science building this year has given me a renewed sense of pleasure in the fact that I'm an English major... The science building is profoundly outdated. In addition to the fact that the equipment is ancient and likely not up to what students graduating after 1975 would require, the ventilation is nonexistent. - Insert multiple scenes of me walking up the stairs and having flashes to mishandled middle school sulfur experiments... - I am a fan of the building itself though. I enjoy the ambiance, but, I suppose "old world charm" isn't something we should really envy about aspects of our institution. Here's hoping the planned academic building will be hosting a new science center... I, and my frequently nose-holding self, hope it happens as soon as possible so that the science building - inside and out - can be reflective of the rest of such an amazing institution. read more

Trinity Washington University - Colleges & Universities Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

I'm a grad of Trinity. Enjoyed my time here and the professors are really great. Class sizes are small and everyone gets to know you. They have an all-women day program (College of Arts and Sciences), and co-ed programs (School of Professional Studies and School of Education, a night-time and weekend program offering undergrad and grad degrees). There are also now nursing programs as well as programs at THEARC, the first of its kind offering college-level classes east of the Anacostia River. Located near the Brookland Metro, there is a free shuttle to/from campus. CUA is located across the street, as well as the National Shrine. With the consortium of colleges in DC, you're able to take classes at all local institutions (AU, Georgetown, GW, Howard, CUA, etc). Famous alums include Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi; President of Hearst Magazines, Cathy Black; and Secretary of Health and Human Services, Kathleen Sebelius. read more

Where has the time went!! I'm an alumni and I will say my experience at Trinity was unlike no other. Loved being on a campus in the city, walking to the Brookland or Metro.. There is also a shuttle that runs 7days a week until late - private university perks- and a bomb.com deli inside the main building near the bookstore also in the main bldg. Convenient !? Freshman year all the way to senior I enjoyed my classes, professors and OK we know about admissions but honestly I heard bad things on other schools being like the DMV lol and said thank goodness I went to Trinity.. Maybe it's because the school is fairly small and each student is treated carefully never rushed out of admissions or maybe it's the student teacher ratio that leaves them time for a question. Or maybe when you see how involved the top Deans and Staff really care you know your in a thoughtful place, happy to be apart of the Trinity Community. read more

Great school.....Some outstanding professors....location accessible by train and shuttle. There are various types of programs and outlet for day students as well as part time. Check it out..... read more

Do not come here. Please do not come here. I wish I could give 0 stars. I'm in the master's program for counseling here and it is the worst. I've watched over half of the people that started at the same time I did either drop or transfer. This is my 2nd and last semester here. I have truly hated my experience here. Issues I have had: Program is disorganized I have been given busy work rather than work pertaining to counseling Have to buy books not pertaining to counseling The program is more educational and social justice based. Last semester I did more work dealing with social justice and education than I did with anything mental health related. If I wanted to get a degree in these things, I would do so. For all of the verbatim we are taught in class, anyone would be better doing a counseling program online. Honestly, for the money I have paid, it has not been worth it. And it's worse this semester. Professors never seem to have it together. Can't answer emails. Can't actually teach aside from recapping everything we read prior to class. I never thought I'd say this, but I wish I had gotten my degree online at a CACREP accredited university. Speaking of which, something this school was not upfront about, they have applied and failed to get CACREP accreditation. I was only told they were in the process of getting accreditation- which they are not. They are only gathering the things they need to apply. I truly thought this school would be a good experience. I had attended a big school for undergrad and I have never experienced the type of trouble I have here. Being a small school, you would think Trinity would be better. Also, the food from the vending machine is better than the food from the on campus diner in the main hall. If that doesn't speak volumes, I don't know what does. read more

If I could give this school a zero I would. The dorm life sucks. Not only does it suck but it is unclean. I have been living here for three years. My first year in the dorms I had beg bugs, in the Freshman dorm, Cuvilly. The water that comes out of the faucet is brown. There's a mice problem in the dorms. The deli serves food and drinks with ants in it. DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILDREN HERE! This is the reality of the school. I have threatened to call the health inspector on the school and they did nothing. There's mold in the bathroom. Im sure asbestos has taken over as well. Recently, I reported a dead mouse smell in my room and was told that facilities could not find the mouse and I just needed to spray air freshener. They take these situations lightly. Needless to say the dorm that I live in is also below the dinning hall, which means that there is also mice near the food. Trinity is a health hazard for anyone who stays here. Yes, they give good money to come here but that is because they suck and no one wants to come here. Once you get here your credits barely transfer thats how they trap you here. DO NOT GET STUCK IN THE TRAP! RUNNNNN! RUNNN! RUN! If you have to go here do not stay on campus. The teachers are lovely but the campus housing sucks and they do not care. The school needs to be shut down and seriously renovated. It is not conducive to learning or growing. The worst experience ever! read more

If you're thinking of getting a master's at this school, don't. It's a waste of money. I took three classes in a master's program for education and honestly it's a waste of money! We had one professor who wouldn't teach us how to write good research papers. He expected us to teach ourselves through the APA style book. Instead all he would discuss at every class was issues on social justice. I think there's a place to discuss social justice perhaps if I was taking that class, but not when I'm trying to learn how to write a good research paper! At one point the class got frustrated because we felt lost and asked him if he would ever at least review writing a research paper correctly. And he just said that that is what the book is for. Imagine, I paid like $4,000 for one class to NOT be taught. The only professor that I felt like I learned something was with the teacher who teaches about special education. Another thing, Trinity will give you ALOT of busy work. But not quality assignments that will actually benefit you. You will also have to do a lot of outside work such go to different places to observe classes or schools. The make you do this because it has something to do with the accreditation. Getting a master's will feel more like getting an undergrad because wits busy work. I new students that would say that they had to take off work in order to complete assignments! And it's true. I had to skip work sometimes as well. The make you do 6 article reviews which are very time consuming on top of other assignments. One professor makes his students teach the class instead of him teaching. He assigned the pages of the textbook to us and had us present the info we read. This is not a quality university. It's just as expensive as other universities only when you graduate you really won't be able to apply what you learn here to the real world. I was very disappointed. Not to mention that the neighborhood can be unsafe when your walking to your car at night. Go in groups. After the 3rd class, I stopped going. I decided to do a teacher preparation program that is actually preparing me for the classroom, which is what I need not useless classes that won't prepare me. read more
