The Trustee For Trinity College Foundation
Tips for Applicants
Prospective scholarship applicants, especially those from disadvantaged backgrounds, should aim for strong academic performance, consistent school attendance, and active participation in community voluntary work. The selection process for certain scholarships, such as those in partnership with the Cambodian Children's Fund, involves passing maths and English tests, followed by a panel interview.
Giving Philosophy
The foundation is dedicated to supporting academic excellence and expanding access to higher education for young people, particularly those from non-traditional educational backgrounds and those facing significant barriers. It aims to foster a strong sense of belonging, inclusivity, and safety within the college community, empowering students to excel and make meaningful contributions to the world. Their partnership with organisations like the Cambodian Children's Fund exemplifies their commitment to creating pathways out of poverty through education.
