About This School

Trinity International University-Illinois is a private nonprofit institution located in Deerfield, Illinois with approximately 140 undergraduate students enrolled. Trinity International University-Illinois has an open or accessible admissions process, with an acceptance rate of 93%. The average net price after financial aid is $21,386 per year. The graduation rate is 46%, and the typical graduate earns $45,400 within 10 years of enrollment.

The numbers here raise serious red flags: a 5% freshman retention rate means nearly every first-year student leaves before sophomore year, and a 46% graduation rate suggests most who stay still don't finish. If you do graduate, median earnings of $45,400 at 10 years are modest but manageable given the relatively low median debt of $19,500. Worth considering only if Trinity's specific evangelical Christian mission is central to your goals — otherwise, these retention and completion numbers should push you toward stronger alternatives.
