Founded in 1546 in the penultimate year of the reign of Henry VIII, Trinity College is the Royal College of Cambridge and the best academic college in the country. Members of Trinity College have won 34 Nobel Prizes and 4 Field Medal, more than any other Oxbridge College!
 
Trinity also has a staggering list of alumni including:
 

• 6 prime ministers
• 12 archbishops
• Sir Isaac Newton, Ernst Rutherford, Bertrand Russell, Lord Byron and Prince Charles

 
Trinity is the largest college in Cambridge with over a 1000 students and fellows. It is also the wealthiest one, with an endowment of £1,463.7m and the largest income of any Cambridge college.
 
Entry is normally £3.50 for adults and £1.50 for children. If you’re in a large group then it’s advisable to book ahead. Members of the public can access The Great Court and the chapel on their visit, but not The Wren Library. Alternatively, Great Court may be viewed from beneath Queen’s Gate, on Trinity Lane, free of charge. If you are thinking of applying to Trinity, either as an undergraduate or postgraduate student, you are welcome to look round the college at any time, free of charge.
