The stated aim of the University is "to contribute to society through the pursuit of education, learning, and research at the highest international levels of excellence."

Trinity College

Trinity College was founded by Henry VIII in 1546 as part of the University of Cambridge. Since then Trinity has flourished and grown, and is now home to around 600 undergraduates, 300 graduates, and over 160 Fellows. Trinity exists to give its members a rewarding, richly resourced, and intellectually inspiring place in which to pursue their education and research.

The College is generous in its support of many individuals and institutions in Cambridge, and offers a large number of bursaries and scholarships for both undergraduates and graduates.

It makes substantial annual donations to the Cambridge Trust, and to other institutions in Cambridge that support international students.

The Cambridge Trust is offering a new studentship for students from the Caribbean in partnership with the University of Cambridge and Trinity College. The Programme supports students from the Caribbean who demonstrate outstanding academic ability, by enabling them to benefit from study at the University of Cambridge
