Trinity’s Living-Learning Community model integrates faith, learning, and service, not only throughout the curriculum, but through the campus and into the community.
The World as a Classroom
The Living-Learning approach assumes every square foot of the campus is a learning laboratory - including classrooms, faculty offices, common areas, and student apartments.
Learning on Location
Trinity’s location in the greater Seattle area provides a perfect opportunity to take college learning off-campus, to include the unique urban context, outdoor environmental learning opportunities, and recreation.
Spiritual Leadership
In the Living-Learning Community, chapel leadership becomes a course that prepares students to become future leaders in community worship settings.
Management Experience
Students serve as managers of the college’s bookstore, working closely with Professor Stuart Webber to apply their learning in accounting, marketing, and management.
Acorn Learning Center
Our on-site child care center serves as a “laboratory” for Early Childhood Education majors to apply their classroom learning in a real-world setting by interacting with infants and toddlers.
A Learning Community
Downtown Everett offers a rich context in which service learning can take place and the community and its residents become co-learners and co-teachers in the educational process.
January Term
January Term courses include both on-campus classes and study trips – to places like Mexico, India, Israel, Poland, and Tanzania. Students discover that classroom learning goes beyond four walls.
Campus Center
Our campus is located in the heart of downtown Everett, Washington, surrounded by the buzz of an urban community.

Seattle
Everett is located just 30 minutes north of Seattle, Washington, with its many restaurants, sporting venues, museums, and shopping areas.

Apartments with Character
Our apartments are spacious – and many have hardwood floors, glass doors, and other unique features.
No Two Apartments Alike
Students are able to decorate their apartments to their own unique style – no two apartments are alike!

The Biblical Core
Trinity students take 24 credits in the Trinity Core – a combination of classes in biblical study, spiritual formation, and volunteer service experience.
One-on-One Mentoring

Interactive Classes
Professor Sue Houglum's courses have students moving around, discussing, reading, and presenting — keeping classes interesting and enjoyable.
