Trinity College Undergraduate Advising

The Academic Advising Center supports Trinity College undergraduate students in the work of academic discernment and decision-making once they arrive on campus and until they declare their majors in their sophomore year. Our Quad Advisors provide guidance and perspective as students explore opportunities, reflect on their goals, and plan pathways through the curriculum that are right for them.
