Our Role As A Hispanic Serving Institution
Trinidad State College is a Hispanic-serving institution (HSI). This is a federal designation for an accredited, degree-granting, public or private nonprofit institution of higher education. The institution must enroll 25% or more Hispanic or Latino/a/x students, along with a large percentage of students that are eligible for Pell grants. This designation supports Trinidad State College’s mission to provide quality educational experiences and lifelong learning while educating for the future. This designation also allows us to apply for federal funding through Title V grants. Trinidad State College was designated an HSI in 1999 and we received our first Title V grant in 2000. Currently Trinidad State College’s student enrollment is
