What to Expect

About Tiger Takeoff


Tiger Takeoff is a two-day summer orientation for all new students to get acclimated to life as a Trinity Tiger. Students will get to stay in one of the residence hall rooms, build community with their peers, and be informed about campus resources and support services.

Students may bring two guests to Tiger Takeoff. Guests/family members will be provided with their own program schedule. Guests/family members will need to find their own lodging accommodations during Tiger Takeoff.
