Steps for Admission

STEP 1: Application

Begin by completing an application for the EXCEL (Adult Undergraduate) Program. You can either submit an application via fax, mail or walk-in, or an online application (coming soon). 

STEP 2: Transcripts

Once you have completed the application, you will need to have official transcripts sent from every college or university you have attended. This means that we must receive transcripts in a sealed envelope; photocopies or faxed copies will not be accepted. Our transcript request form (found in the application file above) can be used to obtain official transcripts.

If you have not previously attended a college or university, we require proof of high school graduation. This proof can be provided via a high school transcript, copy of your diploma, or GED certification.

All official records should be sent from your schools of attendance to:

Trinity International University
Undergraduate Admissions
8190 West State Road 84
Davie, Florida 33324

STEP 3: Trinity Admissions Writing Assessment

College level writing and comprehension skills are essential for your success in the Adult Undergraduate (EXCEL) Program.  All applicants are required to submit a written essay for evaluation.  Please refer to the instructions in the application file (above). 

STEP 4: Acceptance

Once the EXCEL (Adult Undergraduate) Admissions Office has received all of your application information, we will review your application materials to determine admission. You will then be notified of your admission status, usually within two to three weeks.

Applicants who are denied admission to the EXCEL (Adult Undergraduate) Program may appeal the decision when questions of qualifications arise. Please contact the EXCEL Admissions Office for more information.
