Hello and welcome to Trinity!

You’ll soon find out that this is an amazing place to live and study. On this page, we’ll be providing you with as much information as possible to help you settle in and get through Freshers’ Week. We will update this page over the next month or so to add more resources, so be sure to check it regularly!

Freshers’ Handbooks

We know there are lots of new things for you to get through before you get here and in your first few days, so each year we produce a Freshers’ Handbook to help you settle in and get all the tedious stuff done. The latest version for Freshers joining in 2023 is found below:

International Freshers’ Handbook

In addition to the main Freshers’ Handbook, the international wing of TCSU (iTCSU) also publishes a guide for international students. By addressing the unique challenges that come with joining Trinity College as an overseas student, iTCSU hopes its International Freshers’ Handbook will ease the settling-in process. Please find it below:

One of our previous Overseas officers produced this video which will hopefully answer some of your questions, though some details may differ depending on Covid-19 restrictions.
